The main approach to losing weight with the Nutrisystem is based on the glycemic index. The Glycemic Index measures the quality of carbohydrates and their impact on your blood sugar. Carbohydrates that break down slowly in your body maintain a stable blood sugar levels, These carbohydrates are low on the Glycemic Index. Carbohydrates that break down quickly raise your sugar levels which cause your insulin levels to spike.
