Know About Glycemic Level

a6250b351bdd2269 honey Know About Glycemic LevelThis glycemic level will not be complete if we did not discuss its digestion process. When we consume sugar in any form of carbohydrates, whether from food that has high glycemic index such as bread or low glycemic index like beans, the pancreas produces the major metabolic hormone called insulin. The task of insulin is to help the sugar to enter the cells, so that can be converted into energy by the mitochondria, and if the consumption of sugar is exceed, the insulin will save them for later use. When we eat sugar in sufficient quantities, the pancreas will produce enough insulin for it.

The problem is when we consume too much sugar, especially sugar that is easily absorbed then the production of insulin will be increase. If this happen for a long time, the body will get used to this insulin increase and as a result, for the same amount of sugar, it will produce more insulin. Just like drug addiction.

First of all drugs in certain doses could heal. But if the pain replies and also having too much drugs, the body will get used to the drug and its effect is reduced, so that for the same illness, it is required more doses. This could turn into a horrible cycle. When the amount of insulin is more than sugar, the body encourages us to consume more sugar (the opposites). And as we consume sugar, the body will produce insulin rapidly in large quantities and continues like that.

At the same time, all the excess sugar is stored in the form of fat, which slows the metabolism and causes various diseases of dementia, heart disease and cancer. This is called prediabetic, metabolic syndrome, insulin resistance or X syndrome.
