उत्तर : 1. "the extent to which a given food raises blood glucose and insulin levels"
व्याख्या :
Answer: A) the extent to which a given food raises blood glucose and insulin levels Explanation: The glycemic index or glycaemic index is a number associated with the carbohydrates in a particular type of food that indicates the effect of these carbohydrates on a person's blood glucose (also called blood sugar) level. A value of 100 represents the standard, an equivalent amount of pure glucose. The GI represents the rise in a person's blood sugar level two hours after consumption of the food.
