Glyx method - the abolition of food kohlehydratreiche
The central theme of this diet is the glycemic index of food. The glycemic index has a direct impact on insulin metabolism. If carbohydrates, such as sugar or starch, from food into the blood, the pancreas responds with the release of insulin How much insulin they each make depends on the type of carbohydrates that we eat. Complex carbohydrates, especially vegetables, fruits, whole grain products and legumes cause a gradual rise in blood sugar and its gradual waste. A positive side effect: a longer feeling of satiety. Cornflakes, white wheat bread, cakes, biscuits, beer, wine grapes and honey include to the food with high GLYX values. They solve a particularly violent release of insulin. The blood sugar rises very rapidly and is very fast. Unangenehmer side effect: after a short time are attacks on cravings.
Foods with a low glycemic index will therefore be the base of the food. These are primarily vegetables and fruit, but also protein-rich foods such as legumes, nuts, dairy (products), meat, poultry, fish and eggs. Cereal products such as bread, especially white bread and rice, pasta and potatoes are bad for their glycemic index largely shunned.
