People who are diabetic are not the only people who pay attention to the Glycemic Index (GI). The Glycemic index measures different types of carbohydrates and how fast the foods you eat raise blood sugar levels.

Choosing foods that are low on the Glycemic index, such as sugarless candy and natural chocolates with no sugar, can result in weight loss. Sugarless candy causes little if any fluctuation in blood sugar and insulin levels. In contrast, white flour bread, which is not healthy, has a high GI of 70. White flour would have a rapid effect on blood sugar levels.

Fill up on low sugar treats

It’s important to keep your blood sugar stabilized by eating sugarless candy and natural chocolate for treats because taking a trip to the candy store and filling up on high-sugar treats can raise your appetite.

According to experts, foods fall into three general categories when it comes to the Glycemic Index. Low GI foods, with a GI of 54 or less, cause a slight rise in blood sugar, while Intermediate index foods with a GI of 55-69 cause a medium rise in blood sugar.

Finally, high GI foods with a GI of 70 or more cause a rapid rise in blood sugar. Tuna has a 0 GI, and has no significant carbohydrate content and, thus, no effect on blood sugar levels.

Combine protein and starches

Most experts say you can have a lower the GI if you combine a high GI food, such as doughnuts, with a low GI food, such as chicken.

An apple, which has a lot of fiber, has a low GI of 38, so you would be able to eat an apple solo instead of part of a meal.

But when you eat sugarless candy and chocolates that do not contain added sugar, you don't have to worry about a rapid rise in blood sugar. Not only will you have satisfied your sweet tooth, you will have tricked your body by indulging in a healthy, natural sugarless candy.
