Food that are high in fiber, complex carbohydrates and essential nutrients are great for long-term energy. These foods usually have low glycemic index (GI) value. The lower the GI value, the longer it takes for your body to digest the food for energy. This is a good thing, especially if you are diabetic because glucose is absorbed at a steadier rate, reducing blood sugar spikes.
