Nutrisystem is a weight loss management company that will send you food that complies with their glycemic index. The glycemic index rates foods on how they produce insulin in your body. If the food has a low glycemic index, then their will be less of an insulin spike and your body will not store the food as fat. A person who is on this type of diet feels full because the blood sugar is kept at a consistant level.

The Nutrisystem diet plan allows dieters to eat carbohydrates. Carbohydrates are allowed because they are good carbs that break down slowly, and keep the insulin levels at a constant rate. Carbs that rate high on the Gycemic Index, break down quickly and your body to stores them as fat. High Glycemic Index food are bad because they will leave you hungry soon after. This can leave you to repeat the cycle over and over. On the other hand, low glycemic index foods allow you to eat the carbs that your body can crave, but will keep you feeling full.

Low carb diets are often more difficult to stick to than low fat diets. They have a lower percentage of compliance than traditional diets, and can leave you hungry througout the day. When you apply low glycemic index foods, the insulin levels stabalize and this will boost your metabolism. This is keep to losing weight and keeping it off.
