This condition is easily treatable by eating a diet that prevents rapid changes in blood glucose. Some of these carbohydrates, for example starches and certain fibers, can be absorbed by the body. The intestine breaks them down slowly into simple sugars which can be absorbed. Other fibers cannot be broken down, and therefore serve as bulk, and are excreted. We consume starch and fiber in sources like corn, rice, wheat, oats, beans, peas, lentil, soybeans, peanuts, potatoes and yams.
Plant materials store their carbohydrates as complex carbohydrates.
Complex carbohydrates are generally not as sweet to the taste as simple carbohydrates, although if you keep them in your mouth for a little while they do begin to taste sweet because the saliva breaks them down into simple sugars. Simple sugars taste sweet without the help of saliva because they are composed of only two linked molecules of sugar. There is evidence that the complex carbohydrates take longer to break down and absorb into the body than do simple sugars. As a result, the sugars from complex carbohydrates do not enter the bloodstream so quickly after a meal. The isulin release from the pancreas is not as vigorous, so you are less likely to have a large drop in blood sugar.
