Control Your Insulin and Control Your Moods
Eating high-glycemic food creates mood disorders. Your body reacts to these foods by increasing insulin levels, which then increases the level of
the stress hormone, cortisol. With elevated levels of cortisol, a person easily experiences anxiety, panic attacks, and depression. If stress hormones stay high over a long period of time, a person can end up medically diagnosed with a mood disorder.
Taking Control of Your Insulin Levels
You can control insulin levels with a glycemic-index weight loss program.
You'll feel better and you'll have fewer down or anxious moments. This is a great win for someone trying to lose weight, because just being on a weight-loss program often adds stress. So expect to feel good and feel in control of your moods, which makes for great weight-loss success.
The Chance for Relief from Serious Mood Disorders
If you are suffering from serious mood disorders, such as depression, anxiety, or bi-polar conditions, ask your health practitioner if avoiding high-glycemic-high-carb foods could improve your situation. Many psychiatrists and psychologists now recommend avoiding most high-glycemic starches and other high-glycemic foods as part of an overall mental health regimen.
