About Low Glycemic

Low‑glycemic meals favor slower‑digesting carbohydrates and plenty of fiber to support steadier blood sugar. Pair carbs with protein and healthy fats, and center plates on vegetables and legumes.

Good choices include beans, lentils, intact whole grains, berries, apples, and non‑starchy vegetables. Limit sugary drinks and refined snacks; read labels for added sugars.

FAQs

How is low‑glycemic different from low‑carb?
Low‑glycemic emphasizes slower‑digesting carbs (beans, intact grains, non‑starchy veg). Low‑carb reduces overall carbohydrate grams regardless of glycemic index.
What are easy low‑GI swaps?
Try steel‑cut oats for instant oats, berries for fruit juice, quinoa or brown rice for white rice, and beans/lentils for refined snacks.
