They are most effective in stabilizing blood sugar levels and effectively controlling hunger. As for calories, whole wheat bread, which is a high-fiber food, may not have a low glycemic index, but is at a medium level. Excessive consumption will still make you fat.

【Health Tips】:

Starches and sweets can increase serotonin, which makes us happy. Therefore, some people especially want to eat sweets or starches when they are in a bad mood. It is important to avoid eating sweets on an empty stomach, as this can easily cause the body to secrete a large amount of insulin to digest the sugar. This will cause the blood sugar level to drop rapidly, making you crave sweets more, which is not conducive to weight control.

The best way to control your weight is to calculate your total calorie intake for the day, distribute it evenly among three meals, and reduce the chances of being tempted by starch or sweets.
