To live longer and stronger Life, we need to eat healthy food (Low Glycemic Food). The goal of healthy eating on a low-glycemic diet is to balance your food choices every day, even when your days are hectic. We have described some major reasons to eat only low glycemic food in your daily diet.
2. Reason 1Reason 1
Low Glycemic Is Low CarbLow Glycemic Is Low Carb
Yeah, super simple. Very straightforward. Low GI foods are mostly the
majority of foods you see in ‘low carb’ diets.
When cholesterol assaults artery walls, the immune system responds the way
it does to any injury—with inflammation. Choosing carbs rich in soluble fibre
may help put the chill on that process by clearing out some of that cholesterol.

4. Reason 3Reason 3
Help you lose weight
Eating a low glycemic/ low carb diet has been shown in studies to
be effective for weight loss. Low carb diets can result in two to
three times the amount of weight lost compared to low-fat diets,
without actively restricting calories. This is because you get more
protein, which is, as mentioned above, harder for your body to
digest.
5. Reason 4Reason 4
Reduced Appetite
Because of the slow release of sugar into your blood, your body
doesn’t tell you it’s hungry. You don’t have a blood sugar crash.
That slow release of sugars is the key here.
6. Reason 5Reason 5
Less Belly Fat
Visceral fat, also known as belly fat, is found deep within your
abdomen, wrapping around your organs and putting you at risk of
heart attacks, high blood pressure, and stroke. A diet centered
around low glycemic, low carb foods has been proven to reduce
belly fat in a greater proportion than a low-fat diet
7. Reason 6Reason 6
Lowered Blood Pressure
A low glycemic diet can help reduce blood pressure, which can
reduce your risk for high blood pressure, also known as
hypertension. If you have high blood pressure, a low carb, low
glycemic diet can be an effective way to reduce your blood
pressure levels.
8. Reason 7Reason 7
Lower your risk of heart disease
Eating more whole grains could also lower your risk of heart
attacks—by up to 29 percent, according to James W. Anderson,
M.D., the University of Kentucky nutritionist whose research
helped make oat bran a nutritional superstar in the 1980s. Dr.
Anderson chalked up the benefits to oats’ soluble fibre, which
lowers cholesterol. But there’s more going on than that.
