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.
