Glycemic index tables—the comprehensive lists of foods and their Glycemic Index (GI) values—are the key to unlocking the health benefits of “the new glucose revolution”.

In this book, the GI tables are presented in an A–Z format for easy access, with listings by food categories and GI values (low/high) and condensed tables of popular foods. As well as the GI values, each table also specifies the serving size, the available carbohydrate per serving and the glycemic load to help you choose the right foods for a well-rounded, healthy diet. Symbols indicate those foods which are “star performers”—possessing a low GI and providing you with the best overall nutritional value. Readers will also find additional information about the research on glycemic load and a GI food pyramid.
