The
GI Food List (also called
Glycaemic Index Food List) measures the "effect of food on blood glucose levels". It is a rank list index for foods based on the how quickly the blood sugar levels will increase after ingestion and we hope you enjoy the
Glycemic Index Food List.
A
low glycemic food gives a slow increase in blood sugar levels. A high glycemic index food gives a more rapid rise in blood sugar levels.
Pure glucose is the food with the highest glycemic index of 100. All other foods have a lower GI and are ranked in relation to glucose. For more information we have the
glycemic index food faq and
glycemic index glossary
Glycemic Load and Glycemic Index Food List
