glycemic index and satiety hormones
Glycemic index refers to a ranking system that measures how quickly carbohydrates in food raise blood sugar levels. It classifies foods as high, medium, or low based on their impact on blood glucose levels. Satiety hormones, on the other hand, are chemical messengers released by the body to signal feelings of fullness and reduce appetite. These hormones play a role in regulating food intake and can influence hunger and satiety levels.
