It couldn't be simpler. How to prevent white bread from raising your sugar levels
Surely many people like to eat white bread on a regular basis.
Also, most likely, people mostly know that such a product is not entirely safe for health.
The fact is that white bread has a high glycemic index.
Simply put, it is quickly absorbed and dramatically increases blood sugar levels.
The latter is extremely dangerous for citizens with diabetes and those who are predisposed to this disease.
Of course, there is a danger for people who watch their figure, especially those who want to lose weight.
But do citizens know that there is a very simple and effective way to make such bread much safer?
If anyone doesn't know, we'll tell you. According to nutritionists, it allows you to reduce the glycemic index of bread by almost 2 times.
You need to do one simple thing – freeze the bread.
This way we will reduce the glycemic index by almost 2 times.
Moreover, after defrosting and reheating, this same index will continue to fall.
Nutritionists advise putting white bread in the freezer overnight.
In the morning we take it out and warm it up a little, and then we can taste a much healthier product.
If you cut the bread into pieces in advance, the defrosting process will take no more than ten minutes.
How does the trick work? The thing is that freezing adjusts the structure of the starch in the bread.
In other words, it is transformed into resistant starch, which is digested more slowly and does not lead to a sharp increase in blood sugar levels.
