Defeat Diabetes with the Glycemic Impact Diet?
The Glycemic Impact Diet is ideal for people with diabetes. The focus of this diet is to regulate insulin production by the pancreas. A pancreas that is overworked will secrete too much insulin, causing the body to store excess fat. A pancreas becomes overworked by the consumption of too many carbohydrates and sugars. With the Glycemic Impact Diet, diabetes can be better controlled by limiting the amount of carbohydrates and sugars consumed each day. Foods with a low glycemic impact are chosen over those with a higher glycemic impact. Blood sugar levels remain more stable as the pancreas regains insulin sensitivity.
