πΏ Understand Glycaemic Index. Support More Stable Health.
English Version
Did you know?
The Glycaemic Index (GI) shows how quickly a carbohydrate-containing food raises blood glucose levels after eating.
Choosing the right foods doesnβt just affect weight β it plays a key role in energy levels, satiety, blood sugar stability, and long-term metabolic health.
β
Why managing GI matters
Helps keep blood sugar levels more stable
Reduces sharp glucose and insulin spikes
Supports steady energy throughout the day
Increases feelings of fullness
Helps lower long-term metabolic risks
Low-GI choices help your body stay balanced, not stressed.
π GI is classified into three levels
π’ Low GI (0β55)
Slow, controlled rise in blood glucose
β Most recommended for daily meals and blood sugar support
Examples: lentils, oats, apples, natural yoghurt, vegetables
π‘ Medium GI (56β69)
Moderate rise in blood glucose
β Enjoy in moderation
Examples: brown rice, ripe banana, wholegrain bread
π΄ High GI (70+)
Rapid rise in blood glucose
β Best limited or avoided
Examples: white bread, chips, sweets, sugary drinks
π‘ Simple tips to lower the GI of your meals
β Combine carbohydrates with protein (eggs, fish, chicken)
β Add healthy fats (olive oil, nuts, avocado)
β Increase fibre intake (vegetables, legumes, seeds)
β Limit highly processed foods
β Choose gentler cooking methods (eg. al dente)
Example:
White rice (high GI)
β¬
Brown rice + vegetables + protein (more balanced)
π± Remember
Everyone responds differently to food.
Monitor your blood sugar, listen to your body, and consult a healthcare professional when needed.
