Carbs and Fiber in Atkins Fudge Brownies Food Item: Atkins Fudge Brownie Atkins Fudge Brownies and DietNot permitted on low carb diet plans, cakes (like Atkins Fudge Brownies) are often calorie-dense with no dietary fiber and little nutrition. Moreover, some cake is high in refined carb sugars and high on the Glycemic Index, which means it can cause a rapid rise in blood-glucose levels, leading to excessive insulin production and a sudden drop in blood sugar. The longer-term health effects of eating high-GI foods and consequent unstable blood sugar levels, include periodic hyperglycemia, hyperinsulimia, obesity and other symptoms, known collectively as metabolic syndrome. Increased risk of diabetes is another possibility. See also Diabesity and Insulin Resistance.
