When you eat coconut meat, your blood sugar levels change like this.

Because of its flavor and health advantages, coconut meat, also known as the flesh or kernel of mature coconuts, is quite popular. However, how does it affect blood sugar levels? Using a dish of fifty grams of coconut meat, businessman Karan Sarin, who analyzes Indian cuisine to determine their effect on blood sugar, illustrated just that.Compared to coconut water, which had a substantial spike, Sarin's CGM, or continuous glucose monitor reading, showed that the surge was minimal after two hours. "There isn't any sugar rush. "A flatline is a fantastic result," Sarin wrote on Instagram.

The flesh of the coconut is used to make coconut milk. Two primary types of coconut milk are available: A thicker version that is frequently used in rich sauces or desserts, also referred to as coconut cream A more liquid variant that can be used directly in place of milk and has more water added Coconut milk in its more liquid form usually contains no more calories than semi-skimmed milk. However, the thicker variety of coconut milk has more calories, so it might be necessary to watch portion amounts.
