Why Low GI?
What is GI (Glycemic Index)?
The Glycemic Index (GI) measures how quickly a food causes our blood sugar to rise.
- High GI foods (i.e. white bread & traditional desserts) cause rapid spikes in blood sugar.
- Low GI foods (i.e. vegetables & wholegrains) are digested more slowly, leading to a gentler, more stable increase in blood sugar.

Why Low GI Matters?
Low GI foods are more than just “diabetic-friendly."
They support your health on multiple levels:
✅ More stable blood sugar levels
✅ Reduced cravings and energy crashes
✅ Better weight and appetite management
✅ Improved heart health and cholesterol levels
✅ Enhanced mental clarity and sustained energy
🍬 Understanding Sweeteners
Not all sugar alternatives are the same — some raise your blood sugar, some leave an aftertaste, and others are better suited for desserts like ours.
Here’s how common sweeteners and sugars compare:

💡 Why We Use Allulose & Erythritol
At Nuvojoy, we have chosen a proven blend of natural, low GI sweeteners that deliver on both taste and science:
- Allulose: A rare sugar with 70% of the sweetness of sugar, virtually no calories, and no aftertaste.
- Erythritol: A sugar alcohol naturally found in fruits that doesn’t affect blood glucose and is also tooth-friendly.
We also include Inulin, a prebiotic fiber that’s mildly sweet. It supports gut health and helps with blood sugar control — but it’s not a sweetener.
These ingredients give us just the right level of sweetness — without any weird aftertaste.
