Weight loss dietsThe Glycaemic Index Diet The glycaemic index nutrition system is linked to the gi index, a chart showing foods and a score representing the speed with which the glucose of the food type gets transformed to sugar in your system. The claim is that slow release types of food (ie those food types with a low Glycaemic score), will keep you feeling full for longer and help you to reduce your consumption of food without feeling you are missing out. It is also especially beneficial for diabetics, as the low GI foods are beneficial in preventing increases in blood sugar secretion. |
