In Vietnam, there are currently about 4.8 million people with diabetes, especially the increasing trend among young people. Regular blood sugar testing plays an extremely important role in preventing and treating diabetes. So what is the normal blood sugar level?

The glycemic index (GI) is an index that evaluates the ability of a food to absorb and increase the concentration of glucose in the blood. Foods with a higher GI are digested and absorbed quickly, increasing blood sugar quickly, and vice versa, foods with a low GI are absorbed slowly and increase blood sugar slowly.
