glycemic index and energy levels

The glycemic index refers to a scale that measures how quickly carbohydrates in food raise blood sugar levels. It helps understand how different foods affect our energy levels. Foods with a higher glycemic index are quickly digested and cause a rapid increase in blood sugar levels, leading to a spike in energy followed by a crash. On the other hand, foods with a lower glycemic index are digested more slowly, resulting in a gradual and sustained release of energy, preventing sudden energy fluctuations.
