Diabetes is a common chronic disorder and major cause of death in many countries. Having high glucose levels is a warning sign because if left untreated, it will lead to type 1 and type 2 diabetes. Diet plays an essential role in managing high glucose levels and diabetes along with insulin and drugs.
When a person has diabetes, whether their body cannot secrete enough insulin or the insulin is not used correctly, glucose builds up in the blood. High blood glucose can cause many symptoms, including fatigue and heart problems. One way to lower your blood sugar is to follow a healthy diet. In general, foods and beverages that are slowly absorbed by the body are the best choices to control high glucose levels because consuming them increases or decreases blood sugar. Glucose or GI index measures the specific effects of food on blood sugar levels. Individuals who want to manage their blood sugar should go for low or moderate glucose index food.
