According to WHO, the index of glucose is the best criterion to interpret the mechanism of obesity. This is a metabolic criterion, interrelated with the insulin. With regard to this we have, within the bounds of possibility, the means to decrease sugar content comsumption. Insulin is an hormone which controls the disposition of the energy: either burning the energy or accumulating it as fat. If there is little insulin we burn a lot of energy, if there is a lot of insulin we accumulate the energy and turn it into fat.
The Glycemic Index is a method of classifying the nourishment we consume, regarding the intensity in which they affect our level of blood sugar.
This Index shows the relation of sugar and blood 2 or 3 hours after eating, aunque se debe aclarar que el IG se aplica particularmente a los alimentos ricos en hidratos de carbono, ya que los alimentos ricos en grasa o proteína (carnes, pescados, huevos...), no ocasionan ningún incremento de azúcar en la sangre puesto que carecen de hidratos de carbono.
Por otra parte, los azúcares (glucosa o dextrosa, fructosa, galactosa, maltosa, lactosa y dextrinas) también pueden convertirse en grasas saturadas. Una vez digeridos, se convierten en glucosa entrando rápidamente a la sangre. Cuando ocurre, el cuerpo convierte el exceso de glucosa en ácidos grasos, los cuáles se unen a moléculas de glicerol para formar triglicéridos. Una vez convertidos en grasa se depositan en las células y órganos o son transportados por la sangre a los tejidos grasos para ser guardados, influyendo negativamente en nuestro sistema cardiovascular y endocrino.
