🍚 Glycemic Index vs Glycemic Load – Know the Difference! 🩺

Ever wondered why two foods with the same sugar content affect your blood sugar differently? 🤔
It’s not just about what you eat, but how much and how fast it spikes your sugar!

✅ Glycemic Index (GI) tells you how quickly a food raises blood sugar.
✅ Glycemic Load (GL) tells you the overall impact, considering portion size too.

Why it matters ?

Understanding GI and GL isn’t just for people with diabetes — it’s for everyone who wants to make healthier food choices.

High GI foods can cause sudden sugar spikes, leading to energy crashes, increased hunger, and over time, insulin resistance.
High GL means even a healthy-looking food can have a big sugar impact if eaten in large quantities.

Choosing foods with low GI and GL:
✅ Keeps blood sugar levels stable
✅ Helps with weight management
✅ Lowers risk of type 2 diabetes
✅ Supports better heart health
✅ Improves sustained energy levels

Did you know staying hydrated can help keep your blood sugar levels in check? 💧 When your body is properly hydrated, it helps your kidneys flush out excess sugar, reduces insulin resistance, and supports overall health! So, grab that water bottle and drink up – your body will thank you. 💙

Start Your Day with Water
Track Your Water Intake:
Aim for at least 8 glasses (64 oz) of water daily, or more if you're active. Carry a water bottle with you to remind yourself to sip throughout the day, especially if you're managing diabetes or blood sugar levels.
Include water-rich foods like cucumbers, watermelon, and leafy greens in your meals
