Low GI foods help with improving concentration and cognitive performance as they provide a steady supply of fuel to the brain. As glucose is the brain's major energy source hence a constant stream of glucose throughout the day is associated with:
•Better speed of information processing
•Higher concentration level
For children and teens, eating a low GI breakfast has been associated with better learning and improved school performance by enhancing the ability of concentration, reaction time, learning ability, mood and memory.
