Examples of Low Glycemic Index (GI) Foods?

Good eating habits:
- Taking slower with fewer bites when eating may reduce blood sugar levels.
- Using chopsticks instead of a spoon may reduce blood sugar levels.
- Always mix your carbohydrate foods with fibres and protein. For example, eating a bowl of corn flakes on its own produces a more rapid spike in blood glucose levels than if it is eaten with added low-fat milk, berries, and oat bran.
- Choose foods that are minimally cooked: rice porridge, over-cooked pasta, and mashed potatoes have a higher GI than a bowl of rice, al dente pasta, and whole baked potato, respectively.
- Choose foods that are minimally processed: white flour, white basmati rice, and fruit juices have a higher GI than wholemeal coarse flour, brown basmati rice, and whole fruits.
