high glycemic index and insulin resistance
High glycemic index refers to a measure of how quickly and significantly a particular food raises blood sugar levels after consumption. Foods with a high glycemic index cause a rapid increase in blood sugar levels. On the other hand, insulin resistance occurs when cells in the body become less responsive to the hormone insulin, resulting in difficulties in regulating blood sugar levels.
