How does the glycemic index of foods affect fat loss and blood sugar control?

The glycemic index (GI) of foods affects fat loss and blood sugar control by indicating how quickly a food raises blood glucose levels. Foods with a high GI cause rapid spikes in blood sugar, leading to increased insulin secretion and potential fat storage. Low GI foods, such as whole grains and legumes, release glucose more slowly, promoting stable blood sugar levels and reduced fat accumulation. Choosing low GI foods can support more effective fat loss and better blood sugar management.
