The glycemic index (GI) is a measure of the blood glucose-raising potential of the carbohydrate content of a food compared to a reference food (generally pure glucose). Carbohydrate-containing foods can be classified as high- (≥70), moderate- (56-69), or low-GI (≤55) relative to pure glucose (GI=100).
The consumption of high-GI foods results in higher and more rapid increases in blood glucose concentrations than the consumption of low-GI foods. Rapid increases in blood glucose (resulting in hyperglycemia) are potent signals to the β-cells of the pancreas to increase insulin secretion. Over the next few hours, the increase in blood insulin concentration (hyperinsulinemia) induced by the consumption of high-GI foods may cause a sharp decrease in the concentration of glucose in blood (resulting in hypoglycemia).
Hence, first option i.e, Hyperglycemia with increased insulin secretion is the correct answer.
Ingestion of a food with a high glycemic index will result in which of the following...
levels rise after its consumption. Research indicates that high-glycemic index foods raise blood glucose levels rapidly and increase the risk of obesity, type 2 diabetes, The glycemic index of a food relates to how quickly blood glucose after its cardiovaseular disease.

Which of the following statements about the unfolded protein response (UPR) in the endoplasmic reticulum (ER) and Adult- Onset (Type II) diabetes is false? Answers A-D A All of these statements are correct. o B An unfolded protein response in reaction to increased insulin demand can result in programmed cell death in insulin-producing cells of the pancreas leading to Type Il diabetes. C High levels of insulin production can lead to the accumulation of misfolded proteins in the ER, inducing...
