RESET your glycemic index and lose weight

To get started on the road to proper nutrition, you must
first understand something called the glycemic index.
This index measures how fast your blood sugar rises after
eating a particular food. Foods like potatoes, white bread,
white rice, and processed grains are considered to be high
glycemic foods -- so high, in fact, that these foods cause
your blood sugar to rise faster than simply spooning table
sugar into your mouth.

When your blood sugar rises quickly after eating, your body
responds by spiking your insulin level. This drives the
sugar into your cells. But then your blood sugar crashes,
taking your energy levels with it and leaving you with nearly
irresistible hunger cravings. You have to eat again - usually
another high glycemic meal - and this starts the process all
over again.


Over time, your cells develop a resistance to this spike of
insulin, and more of the blood sugar is driven into your fat
cells, leading to weight gain. Eventually, your body cannot
produce enough insulin to counter the effect, leading to type
2 diabetes...which is happening today in epidemic proportions.
The alternative to high glycemic foods is, of course, low
glycemic foods, which cause your blood sugar to rise slowly.

This allows the body to process food gradually, with little
spike in insulin, leading to more consistent energy levels, a
gravitation toward your body's natural (healthy) weight,
eventual recovery from insulin resistance, and a move to
better overall health.
