Glycemic Index & Your Meal Plan |
The Glycemic Index – ( “Good Carbs & Bad Carbs” )
What you need to know -
Most all bad "Carbs" are Starches and Sugars
So what are "Good" carbs??
The Glycemic Index is recognized by the World Health Organization and it measures the quality of carbohydrates and their impact on your blood sugar levels. Carbohydrates that break down slowly, encouraging stable blood sugar levels, rate well or "low" on the Glycemic Index, versus those that rate higher because they break down too quickly and cause your insulin levels to spike and your body to store fat while also leaving you hungry soon after a meal. It's the difference between "good" carbs and "bad" carbs.
