Low GI foods need more time to be processed by your body, and this makes you feel full for longer periods of time. This type of foods rise your blood sugar levels slowly, and you won't feel the energy boost right away, but you will have more energy and you won't be hungry. This means that you will be able to eat less and to lose weight faster.

Sweets, juices, potatoes and white flour, sugar and similar products have high GI. High-fiber foods, whole grains, fresh vegetables, but also olive oil, nuts and similar foods have low levels of GI, suppress hunger, and provide enough energy to last longer. This means that your body uses energy to digest these foods, so you can also regulate your body weight.

High calorie foods such as olive oil must be used sparingly, in case you are concerned about your weight, of course. On the other hand, consuming only low GI food will result in more efficient weight loss, because your body will have to use more energy to process this food.
