Shakeology is certified low glycemic
Shakeology is now certified Low Glycemic. It's just further proof that Shakeology is good for you. But there's more. Shakeology rates just a 24 on the glycemic index (GI). A number that is extremely low and is reason to be excited.
Put simply, the glycemic index is a way to measure how carbohydrates react in your blood. When you eat carbohydrates your blood sugar level rises. The number in which your blood sugar level rises is the glycemic index. Measured on a scale of 0-100, the higher the given food raises your blood sugar the higher the glycemic index number it is assigned. This rise in blood sugar has shown to cause people to gain weight and is also a factor in the cause of diabetes.

How the Glycemic Index effects the body
Foods that are high on the glycemic index promote a production of insulin in your body. Sometimes too much. This is when people get a "sugar rush". This burst of energy feels good at first but then your blood sugar rapidly drops back to normal levels and causes a "crash". Low glycemic foods like Shakeology are a good way to avoid a sugar rush and maintain a steady blood sugar level thus stabilizing blood sugar and insulin levels. The rise in blood sugar levels is what promotes type 2 diabetes.
The dangers of high blood sugar levels
Foods high on the GI scale (70 or more) include white bread, pretzels, potatoes, pasta, sugar and most processed foods. These foods trigger a rapid spike in blood sugar levels and insulin.
Consuming these foods:
- Causes:Encourages the body to store fat
- Creates hunger pangs and binge eating
- Energy levels crash
- High blood pressure and diabetes
Consuming these foods:
- Increases glycogen levels which in turn encourages the body to burn fat
- Helps curb craving
- Helps balance moods
- Reduces the risk of heart disease, helps control diabetes and regulate blood pressure
At a 24 rating on the Glycemic Index Shakeology is actually lower than most fruits and vegetables. It helps keep blood sugar levels in check and supplies essential nutrition that satisfies hunger, energizes and promotes good health.
