A high glycemic index indicates that a food can cause a rapid increase in blood sugar levels after consumption.
Rice is a high GI (glycemic index) food, so yes.
No, protein generally has a low glycemic index (GI). The glycemic index measures how quickly carbohydrates in food raise blood sugar levels, while proteins do not significantly impact blood glucose. Foods high in protein, such as meat, fish, and legumes, typically have little to no effect on glycemic response. Therefore, protein is not classified by glycemic index in the same way carbohydrates are.
Yes. The glycemic index of peanuts is 13 which is very low. A glycemic index of up to about 55 is considered low. Also, remember that the glycemic index of a particular food can be affected by the glycemic load of the entire meal. So don't be scared to add a higher glycemic index food to that snack of peanuts.
A measure of how fast and high the food causes the blood glucose to rise

yes they are
