In particular, regarding the recently focused 'blood sugar diet', he said that he is keeping an anti-blood sugar spike diet such as "I get sleepy right away when I eat a diet with a high GI index" and "Chocolate also eats only zero sugar".




The `GI Index' mentioned by Joy is the rate and degree at which blood sugar rises after eating carbohydrate-containing foods.

It is expressed on a scale from 0 to 100, and glucose (pure sugar) is set as the reference value of 100. Looking at the classification of foods according to the GI index, less than 55 are low GI-index foods that slowly digest in the body and increase blood sugar smoothly, including vegetables, legumes, nuts, dairy products, pasta, and mixed-grain bread. It is a food with a moderate rate of increase in blood sugar with a GI index of 56 to 69, including honey and whole wheat bread. White rice, white bread, potatoes, snacks, white sugar, and soda with a GI index of 70 or higher sharply increase blood sugar.

The GI index is known to play an important role in diabetes management and weight control. If you choose a food with a low GI index, your blood sugar will gradually rise and you can receive energy continuously, so people who need blood sugar control are advised to prefer food with a low GI index.




Preventing the so-called 'blood sugar spike' is the key to such a blood sugar diet. Blood sugar spike, a phenomenon of rapid blood sugar rise and fall after meals, occurs repeatedly during excessive carbohydrate intake or frequent monosaccharide intake, causing inflammation and reduced physical strength in the body. Frequent blood sugar spik is known to reduce blood sugar control ability and promote excessive insulin secretion, resulting in an easy accumulation of fat.
