"Comparing Low-Glycemic and Low-Carb Diets for Health"
Originally Published 1 year ago — by EatingWell
The low-glycemic diet emphasizes choosing low-glycemic foods over high-glycemic ones to stabilize blood sugar levels and improve health, while the low-carb diet limits carbohydrate intake to aid in weight loss and blood sugar management. Recent research suggests that the low-glycemic diet may offer more health benefits, including lowering blood sugar and cholesterol levels, compared to the low-carb diet. However, individual needs, medical history, and food preferences should be considered before implementing any diet, and consulting with a registered dietitian nutritionist is recommended.
