Question

mark is choosing among multiple different types of food at a restaurant. which type of food would be the best choice to manage his blood sugar?
a) one with a high glycemic load and low glycemic index
b) one with a low glycemic load and low glycemic index
c) one with a high glycemic load and high glycemic index
d) one with a low glycemic load and high glycemic index

Explanation:

Glycemic index (GI) measures how quickly a food raises blood sugar. A low - GI food is better as it causes a slower rise. Glycemic load (GL) takes into account both the GI and the amount of carbohydrate in a serving. A low - GL food also helps in managing blood sugar as it has a smaller impact on blood glucose levels. So, a food with low glycemic load and low glycemic index is ideal for blood sugar management.

Answer:

B. One with a low glycemic load and low glycemic index
