Keep your blood sugar on an even level. When you consume foods high in sugar or white flour your blood sugar spikes which signals your body to produce insulin. The higher the amount of sugar, the more insulin is produced. The more insulin the more of the glucose is converted to fat for storage. Keep you blood sugar level and the insulin spikes won't happen. Do that by combining a food heavy in starch or sugar with a protein or a fat. The protein and fat take longer to digest so they enter the blood stream as glucose more slowly and no spike. It's better to spread your morning toast with cream cheese or peanut butter rather than with jam. Or have the toast with a scrambled egg. Sugar obviously will spike your blood sugar, unless you eat it with fiber, that's what happens when you eat a whole orange. The fiber takes longer to digest so the sugar doesn't enter your blood stream as quickly. Drinking a glass of orange juice means the sugar hits your system almost immediately.
