Significance
A diet filled with foods that are highly rated on the glycemic index raise the blood sugar quickly. High glycemic index foods trigger strong insulin responses, and can expose the body to the many negative effects of insulin. Sugary diets have also been linked to an increased risk for heart disease, and have been connected to an increased risk for diabetes, according to ScienceDaily.com.
Benefits
A diet that follows moderation of sugar and starches, should help moderate weight control, suggests ScienceDaily.com. This is a beneficial resource for diabetics who need to control their insulin levels carefully. Managing insulin levels and blood sugar can support sustained energy throughout the day. Additionally, using the ratings of the glycemic index help to control the appetite and can delay hunger pangs, which helps with weight management.
Drawbacks
The main drawbacks to following this diet is the lack of information available when considering a food choice or combination of foods together. The GI numbers are not listed on food labels and can be difficult to locate. The glycemic index doesn't consider all the variables that affect blood sugar such as how food is prepared or how much is eaten, and the glycemic index includes only single food items rather than combinations of foods, which can affect blood sugar differently, according to MayoClinic.com.
Considerations
If you use a glycemic index to support your dieting goals, consider it as one tool to benefit your overall dieting approach. Single food items such as bananas and potatoes are relatively high on the index but will not affect your insulin levels much when eaten in combination with a protein or fat food item such as nuts or cheese. Consumption of natural fiber and fats, with carbohydrates, can reduce the extreme blood sugar reactions. Low-fat diets cause quicker digestion and absorption of carbohydrates in the form of sugar. By adding some fats to the diet, digestion and absorption is slower, and the insulin reaction is moderated, suggests Joseph Mercola, doctor with Dr. Mercola Natural Health Center.
