2007-03-08 The Glycemic Index and Your Blood Sugar fitsugar

Weve all been programmed to think of carbs as the bad guy but not all carbs are bad. However, carbs that spike blood sugar can possibly raise your risk of Type 2 diabetes, heart disease, not to mention possibly cancer, acne and Alzheimers and can cause weight gain. Carbs low on the Glycemic Index (GI) are the good carbs that produce only small fluctuations in our blood glucose and insulin levels. These carbs are often considered the secret to health (you reduce your risk of heart disease and Type 2 diabetes) and promote weight loss. Jean Caper, a nutrition researcher from the University of Sydney, gives the low down on controlling your blood sugar spikes with these foods

Watch your blood sugar levels. I suggest people start by following the glycemic index eat carbohydrates that are slowly broken down into glucose such as vegetables and whole grains. Cut down on refined starches and sugars. Consider natural supplements: Fiber, Phase 2 starch neutralizer and chromium to keep blood sugar levels in the proper range.

2007-03-28 Mineral Wells Index, Mineral Wells, TX - Diabetes in children

At a time when diabetes educators were telling parents not to worry about processed food because a carb is a carb, Hart started reading about the glycemic index. Processed foods, like white bread, dump sugar into the bloodstream faster than unprocessed foods, like whole wheat bread. It made sense, she said, that white bread would cause her sons blood sugar to spike and wheat bread would not.

Also, she said, theres still controversy within the diabetes community over whether glycemic index matters and whether a carb truly is just a carb. But that shouldnt hold back anybody from trying to eat more nutritious foods, she said.

What does one eat if he/she dislikes bananas or wishes to slim down Sadly, although bananas are nutrient-dense, their somewhat higher glycemic index (GI) contributes to an expanding waistline if eaten in excess. (The GI is a measure of a foods impact on blood-sugar levels in the body. ) I personally love bananas. (In fact, I have joined the Facebook Group, "Banana lovers of the world unite". ) However, due to my slimming goals, I must limit my banana consumption, and have discovered other equally-excellent forms of Potassium. I always recommend a varied diet.

Simply pairing a protein such as a handful of almonds with a carbohydrate such as a banana can enhance your energy and increase your focus and mental ability. Fruit gives you a natural high and nuts slow down the glucose from the fruit in your blood stream. You want the carbohydrates to enter the blood stream slowly and carbs with a low glycemic index (like bananas) slowly trickle glucose into your blood stream and keep your energy levels balanced, meaning you will feel fuller for longer between meals.
