glycemic index and dietary patterns
Glycemic index refers to a measure that rates how quickly carbohydrates in foods raise blood sugar levels. It helps determine whether a food is high or low on the glycemic scale, influencing the body's blood sugar control. On the other hand, dietary patterns refer to a consistent way of eating that involves specific food choices and quantities consumed over a long period. These patterns reflect an individual's overall eating habits and can have an impact on their health and wellbeing.
