Low GI breakfast on the balcony. I've made the most delicious müsli EVER! If you want to make your own low GI müsli:
walnuts, almonds, hazelnuts, Sunflowerseeds, pumpkinseeds, sesameseeds and flaxseeds! I would serve it with a nice natural youghurt and a little squeeze of honey. It was delicious i have to say. Thank god i made a big jar of it. Now we can eat it many mornings to come.

Why we choose low GI

Choosing low GI carbs - the ones that produce only small fluctuations in our blood glucose and insulin levels - is the secret to long-term health reducing your risk of heart disease and diabetes and is the key to sustainable weight loss.

Eating a lot of high GI foods can be detrimental to your health because it pushes your body to extremes. This is especially true if you are overweight and sedentary. Switching to eating mainly low GI carbs that slowly trickle glucose into your blood stream keeps your energy levels balanced and means you will feel fuller for longer between meals.

-help people lose and manage weight
-increase the body's sensitivity to insulin
-improve diabetes management
-reduce the risk of heart disease
-improve blood cholesterol levels
-can help you manage the symptoms of PCOS
-reduce hunger and keep you fuller for longer
-prolong physical endurance
-High GI carbs help re-fuel carbohydrate stores after exercise

Low GI lunch

Mmm...this is plaice rolled up in bacon, put on a stick and then fried in some oil and finished in the oven. Served with a white wine cream sauce and a spinach sallad. This dish is lovely but i would prefer it with a fish that has a less 'fishier' taste.
