Why is the Glycemic Index (GI) important?

0

A. High-GI foods, such as fast and processed foods, are rapidly digested and cause sharp spikes in your blood sugar levels. This can damage your health and also contribute to weight gain, as you will soon be hungry and low on energy. Conversely, low-GI foods are slowly digested, causing a gradual and sustained increase in your blood sugar level.
