Glycemic Index And Glycemic Load
[?]
Submitted by My Fitness Hut Blog
Being aware of the glycemic Index (GI) of certain foods can help you control your body fat. It is a numerical index that ranks carbohydrates based on their rate of glycemic response, or their conversion to glucose within the human body. The Index uses a scale of 0 to 100, with higher values given to foods that cause the most rapid rise in blood sugar. Pure glucose is the reference point and has a GI value of 100.
