Benefits of a low glycemic index (GI) diet
- Avoid obesity: Consuming low-glycemic foods will make you feel full more easily and help you control your diet.
- Helps control blood sugar: Because the body needs more time to convert low-glycemic foods into sugar, it helps control blood sugar.
- Relieve stress on the pancreas: Eating low-glycemic foods requires relatively less insulin secretion, which helps relieve stress on the pancreas.
Since low-GI foods convert glucose slowly, the increase in blood sugar after a meal is naturally relatively small, allowing more effective control of blood sugar and reducing the risk of diabetes. In addition, another benefit of low-GI food is that it gives us a feeling of fullness, which can delay the onset of hunger, thereby helping to control weight. There have been many studies pointing out that a low GI diet can help control blood sugar. In 2008, the American Diabetes Association also proposed the benefits of a low GI diet for diabetes.
