As you know, the glycemic index is a relative indicator that shows how carbohydrates in foods affect the change in blood sugar levels. Carbohydrates with a low GI (up to 55) are absorbed and absorbed more slowly, as a result of which they cause a smaller and slower increase in glucose levels. Of course, the same figure affects the level of insulin.
It is a mistake to think that GI is only important for diabetics. In fact, this indicator is now important for many athletes who monitor their diet. That is why it is important to know not only the KBZhU product, but also its GI. Even when it comes to vegetables, fruits or berries, which are already generally considered healthy and right foods. The table of glycemic indices of fruits, vegetables and berries will help to understand this issue.
