Glycemic Index List Demonstrates NingXia Red Can Be a
Wonderful Choice in a Diabetes Diet
Most juices have a higher glycemic index than the fruits from which they are
derived. NingXia Red has been extensively tested and found to be low glycemic,
with the same low score, 11, as agave syrup.1 You
might wonder how that is possible with all the sugars found
in wolfberries. Remember that NingXia Red contains WHOLE wolfberries—skin,
seeds, pulp and all. The fiber in wolfberries keeps
the sugars from "spiking" in
the blood, making NingXia Red a healthy choice even for diabetics. You will notice
that there are no "junk juices" such as apple, pear or white grape in the list
of ingredients —that
is because they have no balancing fiber (and no essential sugars either).
Glycemic Response of Various Liquid Supplements
Comparisons with other juices show that NingXia Red has a gentle influence on
blood sugar levels—not the radical peaks and crashes cause by normal
fruit-based juices. NingXia Red's low glycemic impact is yet another demonstration
of its healthfulness.

Note that the Ningxia wolfberry is one of the lowest-glycemic foods in existence.
How is it possible for the glycemic rating of NingXia Red juice to be even lower?
One reason is that the measurement was made on DRIED Ningxia wolfberries. Drying
a fruit concentrates the always sugars. Even at that the Ningxia wolfberry maintains
a phenomenally low impact on blood sugar because of its unparalleled fiber
content and its delightfully
high occurrence of natural chromium. NingXia Red maximizes that goodness
by including the WHOLE berry—seeds,
skin, pulp and all. The proprietary “Nutrient Guard” preparation
ensures LIFE and health value of the Ningxia wolfberry is preserved. Finally,
several healthy juices are synergistically
combined to make the the whole greater than the sum of the parts. Because
the sugars of the juice are diluted by the fluids, they are not as concentrated
as those of the dried Ningxia wolfberry.

any natural substances such as essential oils for serious health conditions that
require professional attention.
