3:07 Using these scales to help with weight loss
Today we’re going to cover the glycemic index vs. the insulin index.
The glycemic index is a scale that has to do with how fast sugar or carbs affect your blood sugar levels.
For example, potatoes or bread spike the sugar in your blood, making them high on the glycemic index. But celery or peanuts don’t create that same effect and would be low on the glycemic index.
The insulin index is a scale of non-carbohydrate foods that affect insulin. Even though a certain food might not be sugary, it doesn’t mean that it won’t affect insulin.
For example, whey protein and lean beef are high on the insulin index, and butter and bacon are low on the index.
The goal is to have low insulin and blood sugar levels. It’s almost impossible to lose weight with high insulin and high blood sugar.
When people are trying to lose weight, they typically consume foods with less fat, like lean protein or egg whites. But these foods are actually higher on the insulin scale.
Fat doesn’t create an effect on insulin. It’s better to consume foods higher in fat to buffer the insulin effect and support weight loss.
