So lower the index better is the food. Vegetable like green leafy vegetable and fruits like apples and oranges have low glycemic index. But having said this, it does not mean a complete stoppage of consumption of other fruits and vegetables. Just reduce the quantity consumed, because apart from sugar they also contain other nutrients your body requires. About eggs can be consumed as it is a very good source of protein. However avoid eggs if you have a kidney disease due to diabetes.
