Food Insulin Index - How Can Pasta Beat Steak!?

Описание: The food insulin index is more important than the glycemic load, but even less well-known! The food insulin index (FII) describes how much insulin is released when ingesting a certain number of calories of a food item. What most people do not know is that animal protein can spike insulin as much as pure sugar! And the most insulinogenic foods are those that come with both animal protein and high-glycemic carbohydrates.

Protein "restriction" to recommended levels can help keep insulin levels low, and can also lower the level of insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) which is linked to many types of cancer!

Some proponents of low-carb diets think that insulin is closely linked to weight gain, and thus carbohydrates should be limited. This is wrong on multiple levels. As you now know, animal protein also spikes insulin, and a steak releases even more insulin than pasta! And the relationship between insulin and weight gain is not that clear cut! Eating a diet low in calorie density and high in fiber is still the most important aspect of sustainable weight loss!
