Limit carbohydrates, don’t avoid them

Оглавление

If you have Insulin Resistance you should limit all carbohydrates, but not avoid them. However, you should avoid all high Glycemic Index foods. You can eat moderate to low Glycemic Index foods, such as many of the above grains in their whole form and in small amounts, although the more insulin resistant you are the fewer you should eat. Some people consider grains to be a primary cause of the Insulin Resistance phenomenon, and recommend an avoidance of all grains, both whole and refined. However, this is not practical for most people and can also cause health problems in the longer term. Instead of cutting out carbs altogether, concentrate on cutting out refined carbs from your diet and choose instead starchy vegetables and legumes as your main source of carbohydrate and whole grains as a limited source – this cannot be emphasized enough.
