Goji Berry Helps Reduce Weight – How?

Posted by: admin  :  Category: Articles

Goji Berry

Goji berry has recently hit the western markets as an organic health food supplement due to its outstanding health and medicinal benefits. Recent reports suggest that Goji Berry also has the properties of reducing weight. According to the health experts this property is due to the low Glycemic Index (GI). The food that we eat is converted in the body to glucose or blood sugar. The GI tells the rate at which this conversion takes place. If a certain food has lower GI value then its conversion into blood sugar is at a very slow rate.

The major weight and diet related problem is that the people do not have control on their cravings. And mostly people get urges to eat starchy and sugary food that have a very high GI value. When we indulge into our desires giving in to the cravings, our blood sugar levels rise. It results in secretion of insulin that triggers a chain reaction of more cravings for sweets. Due to this unstable blood sugar level we do not feel energetic and so we tend to avoid exercise. All this leads to increase in weight. Goji Berry has GI equal to 29 less than apples with 38 and oranges with 42. They are also rich in fiber content that helps maintain stable blood sugar levels and also has nutrients and vitamins. All this helps the body to get rid of fat.
