Thread: Using the excess of proteins as carbohydrates vs using carbohydrates as carbohydrates

Once I heard that the excess of protein is converted into sugar in the body, but there is the take. Which is better: To consume sugar in form of a carb with lets say 17 of glycemic index or to consume excess of protein with basically 0 glycemic index and get the excess of protein transformed into sugar? Is there any different at all for your body?

For example, I am supposing that eating 100 eggs, in which has 0 glycemic index (basically), in such way 30 of them will become 100g of sugar, than eating 500kg of manioc starch, that has more than 0 of glycemic index, in order for your body to transform it into 100g of sugar.

What do you think? Is that a good idea to eat eggs as carbohydrates? They are nutrient dense and with low glycemic index.

As per what I have heard, low glycemic index means lower insulin resistance and hormonal profile.
Also I have heard something like the more the glycemic index of a food, the more it makes your body to produce AGEs and the more AGEs, the more someone ages.
You can notice diabetic people age faster. Eating with high glycemic index would increase your quotient of "how diabetic you are", let's put that way.
