Sugar and salt, if consumed in excess can damage the functioning of the vital organs of the body. If this simple fact is seriously taken into account and amends are made to our diet, by adding more of vegetables, fruits and adhering to a herbalife, our health condition will improve for the better. We have to be wary of this important fact while planning our diet. Its better we get to know about the two diet indices namely Low Glycemic Index (LG) and High Glycemic Index (HG) with respect to carbohydrates. While proteins act as the building blocks of the body, carbohydrates provide the necessary energy.

A diet comprising LG index foods are beneficial, compared to foods that contain HG index. Glycemic response is the speed at which the sugar consumed by a person is converted into Glucose and this implies that foods with a high Glycemic index are converted into glucose at a faster rate causing the body to raise sugar to dangerous levels. Sonoma diet comprises eatables with a Low Glycemic Index, which is one important reason for its efficiency in diet planning. Whole grains are examples of LG carbohydrates. Glycemic Index with a value 55 is considered to be low; 56 to 69 is medium and anything above 70 is considered high. This information may help diabetics to exercise caution and may also give some hints on the subject. Information on nutrition and health derived due to herbs/vegetables not only adds years to life, but adds life to years. But how many of us lend our ears to develop healthy eating habits? Mostly we fall prey to the taste buds.

The entry to body is the mouth. The tongue guards the entry. The owner which is the soul had instructed the guard to allow only things that does good to him. Defying the owner’s orders, the tongue allows things that are tasty to his buds and puts the owner in a state of sluggishness. This is what happens, when we eat things as we like, ignoring the health aspect and satisfying only the taste buds- finally putting the life force into stake. Even Adam ate Apple, which is a testifying example that fruit diet was predominant in the dietary pattern since ancient days. Though meat eating is very common, enough caution needs to be exercised as far as the consumption of fat content in animal fat is concerned. Fruits such as Dates, Grapes, and Pomegranates were considered to have their origin from heaven and were even offered to gods as a mark of respect. The more the consumption of carbohydrates and fats, the more the secretion of ‘neuro-peptides, which further trigger the desire to consume more of these items. This conveys the fact that, when the consumption of these items is gradually reduced, the secretion of neuro-peptides reduces thereby reducing the chain reaction.
