Chapter 1 (Part 2)
Example of GI Foods
Hi guys, let's continue Chapter 1
You must be wondering where your favorite foods fall on the GI list, isn't it?
There are few factors that affect the GI of the foods include type of starch, ripeness, the sugar content, fat and protein content and cooking methods.
However, we don’t need to TOTALLY AVOID the high GI food as it will become moderate GI food if we mix them with low GI food in the same meal. The key is how we prepare them.
I've attached picture of foods based on their GI value below. But how about other foods? Malaysia have a lot of foods. How to find list of all foods with GI scores?
Nowadays, there are many GI scores of various foods online but many foods have not been evaluated thoroughly. Here are some tips that can help you estimate a food’s GI:
1) Color
As you know, we have variety of colors of food. Foods that are white in color tend to have a higher GI compared to other colors. Not only does this include processed foods that made from white flour and white sugar, but foods like white potatoes also have a high GI. For example, you can choose more green foods.
2) Fiber
Foods that are high in fiber typically take longer time to digest, and therefore cause your blood glucose levels to increase more slowly. Example of high fiber foods are whole grains, legumes, nuts, seeds, and fruits with their skin intact.
3) Protein
High protein foods are generally low on the GI score. Foods like legumes are rich in both fiber and protein, thus make it a healthy choice for any diet.
So what are the benefits if we followed low GI diet?
Stay tuned for the next class ~~

低血糖指数(LOW GLYCEMIC INDEX)食品的例子
大家好,让我们继续第一章
您一定想知道您最喜欢的食物是否在GI列表中的位置🤔
影响食物GI的因素很少,包括淀粉的类型,成熟度,糖含量,脂肪和蛋白质含量以及烹饪方法。
但是,我们不需要完全避免高GI食物,因为如果我们在同一餐中将它们与低GI食物混合在一起,它将变成中等GI食物。关键是我们如何准备它们。
我已根据以下GI值附上了食物图片。但是其他食物呢?马来西亚有很多食物。如何找到所有具有GI分数的食物的清单?
如今,各种食品的GI得分很高,但许多食品尚未得到全面评估。以下技巧可以帮助您估算食物的GI:
1) 颜色
如您所知,我们有多种颜色的食物。与其他颜色相比,白色食物往往具有较高的GI。这不仅包括由白面粉和白糖制成的加工食品,而且白土豆等食品也具有较高的GI。因此,您可以选择更多的绿色食品。
2)纤维
纤维含量高的食物通常需要更长的时间才能消化,因此会使您的血糖水平缓慢上升。高纤维食品的例子是完整谷物的全谷类,豆类,坚果,种子和水果。
3)蛋白质
高蛋白食品的GI分数通常较低。豆类等食物富含纤维和蛋白质,因此是任何饮食的健康选择。
那么,如果我们遵循低胃肠道饮食有什么好处呢?
敬请期待下一堂课~~ 😉
