Carbohydrates: simple starch, sugar, potatoes, honey, and grains (especially white starches) have high glycemic indices and can rapidly raise blood sugar.This stimulates the release of insulin in your body, and causes variations in your blood sugar.
Complex carbs can normalize your blood sugar by raising the blood glucose gradually, and by slowly releasing insulin, it keeps your energy steady. If you are hypoglycemic, you definitely want to stay away from simple carbs.
Lean protein diets are found to be effective in reducing the risk of heart diseases by not raising the LDL cholesterol and triglycerides and raising HDL cholesterol. High protein diets improve insulin metabolism, helps to lower blood pressure and reduces the risk of stroke.
