assistant
The benefits of a low glycemic index (GI) diet are numerous and include improved blood sugar control, reduced risk of heart disease and stroke, improved cholesterol levels, weight loss, and improved energy levels. Additionally, a low GI diet can help reduce food cravings, aid in digestive health, and improve insulin sensitivity. Studies have further linked a low GI diet to a decreased risk of certain types of cancers, as well as reduced risk of type 2 diabetes.
