Foods with a low glycemic index value are the ideal choice because they digest slowly, resulting in a slower & smaller rise in blood sugar levels.
The glycemic index (GI) is a measurement system that ranks foods based off their effect on your insulin and blood sugar levels.
Studies have indicated that the low GI diet can result in weight loss, reduce blood sugar glucose levels, reduce insulin senstivity, and lower the risk of heart disease, type 2 diabetes, and also help manage pre-diabetes.
Only foods with carbs can have a GI value, and all carbohydrates are not the same, for example white bread has a much higher glycemic index than whole grain bread.
