Re: What is the Glycemic Index?

well i have been doing some reading and have found the absolute basic of glycemic indexes: the glycemic index measures how fast a food will increase my blood sugar levels.

A high GI will increase my BSL much quicker, such as the case with donuts, syrup, and potatoes

Some low GI foods are foods which are high in fiber like whole grain rye bread.
