Keeping Count Of Your Blood Sugar Levels

by David Webster
(Chicago, Illinois, USA)

When you consume too much sugar in one sitting, you may feel what people call a "sugar rush"!. When you’re in it, you may feel that you have enough energy to do just about everything.

You feel great, but you better ready yourself for the crash right after. As you age, you also have to be more careful about the food you consume. Your body will feel everything you do it.

Whereas in your younger days, you can eat just about anything and not feel the effects it will have on your body. As you go past the age of 30, maintaining your slim figure may no longer be quite so easy.

Believe it or not, you can prevent these wild fluctuations in your blood sugar. In fact, if you are very conscious about the glycemic index of the foods you eat, you can control your eating.

It can be the difference between eating to satisfy your hunger and out of control binging. If you are ever educated in the physiology of your digestive system, you must know that the key to good health is in keeping blood sugar in balance.

The proteins, carbohydrates, and fats you ingest all have different methods of digesting. The details may be difficult to understand, so for now, you just have to know that your priority should be internal balance.

People who have a natural weakness for sweets must know that they need to limit the amount of sugar and candy they consume, especially when they get older. The sweets lead to the blood sugar spike, and you’ll have plenty of energy for a while.

But for every spike comes a plummet. When too much carbohydrate is released into the blood stream, your body will require your cells to absorb it quickly. You are definitely bound to feel tensed, nervous, and irritable after that.

What you do then is to eat everything you’ll see on sight. You will find it hard to resist temptation and won’t stop until your stomach feels extremely full. You have very little control when your blood sugar goes down very quickly.

And unless you satisfy your hunger immediately, you will see that you will have nothing but food in your mind. The only way you can enjoy your food without guilt is to maintain your blood sugar levels. Of course, it is easier said than done. But for some, this is easier said than done.

It all boils down to simple biochemistry. As you get older, try to consume proteins and vegetables whenever you feel hungry. Of course you will also need to take in carbs. You just have to make sure that you create well-balanced meals for yourself. Try to avoid too much sugar, or at least keep it at a minimum.

When you combine protein with carbohydrate, the two will empty out of your stomach slower. This means that it also gets into your blood in a steady stream. So what if you really crave for something sweet and sinful? Just make sure that you eat only after consuming some protein.

TIRED OF FEELING TIRED? We know that life can get you down. Too much stress. Too much pressure.
