High-GI foods pass rapidly through your digestive system and into your bloodstream, driving up your blood glucose levels and causing insulin to spike.   Low-GI foods, on the other hand, pass more slowly through the digestive system and enter the bloodstream gradually, which keeps insulin levels low.  (1,2)   (55 or less = low, 55-69 = medium, 70 or more, high)   Low GI Food Benefits: Increase the body\'s sensitivity to insulin, improve diabetes control, reduce hunger and keep you fuller for longer, minimize carb cravings, and minimize energy crashes   Vegetable: Asparagus - 15 Fruit: Grapefruit - 25 Grain (kinda); Buckwheat - 25   Asparagus - 15   Digestive Health:   Asparagus contains significant quantities of the nutrient inulin. Inulin is a kind of complex carbohydrate that is commonly known as prebiotic.   It does not get digested until it reaches the large intestine, where it is fed upon by a kind of good bacteria like Lactobacilli. This aids in the improved absorption of nutrients   Inflammation   Asparagus contains racemofuran, which is a phytochemical that has anti-inflammatory effect on the body   By inhibiting an enzyme called cyclooxygenase (or COX), racemofuran interferes with the chemical reactions that end up causing pain when your body\'s inflammatory response is prompted.  (3,4)   Grapefruit - 25   Insulin Resistance   Grapefruit contains a specialized antioxidant, naringenin that has been shown to improve insulin sensitivity and help maintain a healthy weight - naringenin makes the liver burn fat instead of storing it.   Grapefruit helps to lower insulin levels and it was shown in one study that grapefruit worked just as well as metformin in lowering blood sugar levels with a 13% reduced fasting blood sugar level  (5)  Buckwheat – 25   While most people think of buckwheat as a whole grain, it’s actually a seed that is high in both protein and fiber.   It supports heart health and can help prevent diabetes and digestive disorders - buckwheat seeds, also called “groats,” are packed with nutrients and antioxidants   Cardiovascular support   Buckwheat\'s beneficial effects are due in part to its rich supply of rutin   Rutin counteracts platelet-activating factor (PAF), which causes blood clot formation and which triggers the inflammatory reactions of allergies.   Rutin can also reduce the rate at which oxidized LDL cholesterol attracts the white blood cells that transform it into the plaque that hardens arteries.   Magnesium   Buckwheat is also a good source of magnesium. This mineral relaxes blood vessels, improving blood flow and nutrient delivery while lowering blood pressure—the perfect combination for a healthy cardiovascular system.
