APPENDIX B

glycemic index, carbohydrate content, and glycemic load of selected foods

A complete list of the GI and GL of all tested foods is beyond the scope of this book; it would be a book in itself. This listing will give you a general sense of what are high-GL and low-GL foods. Items are listed by food groups, from low to high GLs. You may notice that certain food groups are not listed. For example, you won’t see nuts, seeds, fish, poultry, and meats listed because these foods have little impact on blood sugar levels as they are low in carbohydrates.
