Understanding Glucose Spikes and Their Impact on Health
Glucose spikes have gained popularity in health discussions, with many focusing on how different foods affect blood sugar levels. While it's essential to pay attention to glucose spikes as they can impact health, demonizing all glucose spikes and carbohydrates is not the healthiest approach. Chronic hyperglycemia resulting from excessively high glucose levels over time can lead to negative health outcomes. However, the key lies in understanding the context of glucose spikes and not overly fixating on every minor increase in blood sugar levels after meals.
