Glycemic Index - The true measure Maintaining a low blood sugar level is a constant battle for diabetics. There are recommended foods with low glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL). What is Glycemic Index?
What is Glyemic Load?
Glycemic Index is basically a ranking of carbohydrates on a scale of 0 to 100 – according to which they raise the blood sugar levels after eating. GI is an intrinsic property of the food and therefore the most important aspect that defines the rate of blood sugar rise characteristics of the food.
Glycemic Load of any food estimates how much of food will raise a person's blood glucose level after eating it.
GLYCEMIC INDEX CLASSIFICATION
Recent studies from Harvard School of Public Health indicate that the risks of diseases such as Type 2 Diabetes and coronary heart disease are strongly related to the GI of the overall diet a diabetic consumes. Based on the evidence summarized by the American Diabetes Association (ADA), low GI foods:
GI
GI RATING
HIGH GI
> 70
MEDIUM GI
56 - 69
LOW GI
< 55
EFFECT Rapid increase in blood sugar levels Moderate increase in blood sugar levels Slow increase in blood sugar levels
GL = ( GI / 100 ) x Carbohydrate content in food. Products that have a GI of less than 55 are called low GI foods and are recommended for diabetics.
- Lower blood glucose levels - Improve lipid levels - Aid in weight control - Decrease risk of heart diseases - Decrease risk of diabetes
THE CALORIE MYTH
HOW CAN DIABLISS HELP?
Myth: Zero-calorie food is good for Diabetics.
DiaBliss sugar is made by blending a colorless, odorless,
The FDA has approved five artificial sweeteners additionally to a natural low-calorie sweetener. How the human body and brain respond to these sweeteners is very complex. People who use artificial sweeteners may replace the lost calories through other sources, possibly offsetting weight loss or health benefits. Overstimulation of sugar receptors from frequent use of these hyper-intense sweeteners may limit tolerance for more complex tastes.” That means people who routinely use artificial sweeteners may start to find less intensely sweet foods, such as fruits, less appealing and unsweet foods, such as vegetables, downright unpalatable. In other words, use of artificial sweeteners can make you shun healthy, filling, and highly nutritious foods while consuming more artificially flavored foods with less nutritional value. Lack of calories do not make a product or food diabetic-friendly. Diabetic-friendliness of a food or a product depends on its GI. In the long term, Glycated Hemoglobin or HbA1c is the most important variable for measuring the long-term blood sugar control for a diabetic.
and tasteless proprietary extract made from turmeric, black pepper, cinnamon, ginger, fenugreek, gooseberry (Amla) and pomegranate with cane sugar. The extract is aqueous and no chemicals or solvents are used in the extraction process. Active ingredients in the extract have insulin mimicking and insulin resistance lowering properties and facilitate rapid absorption of glucose at the cellular level. DiaBliss herbal cane sugar when treated with this extract results in 30% reduction of its glycemic index compared to that of untreated cane sugar. Thus, with a GI of 44.4 DiaBliss sugar is a low GI product, since foods or products with a GI of 55 or lower are termed as low GI foods.

Type 1 Diabetic: Typical FastingPP & HbA1c trends
Tolerance Test was conducted by administering 50gms of DiaBliss sugar to seven diabetics. Blood samples were collected prior to intake (i.e. fasting levels) and at 1, 2 and 3 hours. Blood samples were collected by an independent laboratory and blood sugar levels were measured using colorimetric technique. Excellent short term absorption of blood glucose was noted. Even after consuming 50gms of DiaBliss sugar, which is three times the daily sugar intake in a single dose, over 70% of diabetics came to fasting levels or below within 3 hours, indicating excellent absorption of blood sugar at the cellular level.
After 6 months consumption of DiaBliss sugar, 40% reduction in HbA1c was observed in a type 1 diabetic.
Typical Long Term Safety & Blood Sugar Control 30-45% lower HbA1c levels were noticed in type 1 diabetics. In type 2 diabetics, 10-20% lower HbA1c levels were seen.
Type 2 Diabetic: Typical Fasting, PP & HbA1c trends After 8 months consumption of DiaBliss sugar, a type 2 diabetic saw a lowered dependence on medication by 50%. The fasting, PP and HbA1c levels stabilized.
