Just how much energy in the form of sugar these carbs release into their bloodstream

Foods we've got a bagel and a chocolate muffin

Hey, I would say that that is more sugar than this one. Maybe two cubes for that one

We're calling this blood sugar bingo quell our volunteers

Guess the equivalent cubes of sugar in each of these foods. What do you think?

Five two minutes got let's go five. Okay, so you've gone for the the muffin as the slightly higher one

I'm just gonna add to that

So ten sugar cubes and that muffin this one so you've gone to two so it's more starchy less sugary

Yeah, let's just add this one Oh what well maybe not

More sugar, there's eleven sugar cube

In this bagel. I'm shocked. I won't lie. I'm shocked. Yeah what you're saying

Is that in the bagel when you eat it you chew it up and start to digest it

Your body is breaking that starch down into that quantity of sugar. Yes, privileged sugar. Yeah. Yeah exactly

This is a portion of white rice and then you've got nice bowl of strawberries, right? Yes

Let's go for five

Never approach ago was right

Strawberries I would half of that Bowl

They are sweet

Okay, so in this amount of strawberries there is

Four sugar cubes

Oh, yeah, so we'll only taste sweet

Actually, the amount of carbohydrate that they contain is is quite small

So let's compare that to this portion of rice then so you've gone for face. Oh,

Really it's grains of sugar that we know more that is that's just when you should the cube equivalents

Jacket potato. Yes. Can you not do that as my favorite food potato?

I would go with similar to the bagel. Yeah, like about ten. You've got quite a good poker face Allison

There's 19 sugar cubes and in this jacket potatoes almost almost double what you something I'm so sorry. How do

Where they hide in order sugar

I think one of it one of the key things to take away from this is that looks can be deceiving

So just because a food doesn't necessarily taste sweet

Doesn't mean that there's not gonna be

sometimes an awful lot of sugar going into your system after you've eaten it the thing that this really Rams home for me is that

there was a huge amount of energy in a potato and that pile of glucose there that will your body will turn the potato into

Will be stored as fat unless you burn it off, you have to be careful about what you're putting in your mouth
