Throughout the world, people are discovering the enormous health benefits of the glycemic index (G.I.) - an easy to understand ranking of foods (most notably carbohydrates) based on their immediate effect on blood glucose levels. Low G.I. foods, those which digest slowly and cause a gradual rise and fall in blood glucose levels, hold the key to health benefits in diabetes, heart disease and weight loss.
This updated, popular A-Z guide to the top 100 low G.I. foods shows how easy it is to incorporate these valuable foods into your diet and your life.

With 100 individual food entries containing information on the food's G.I. value and glycemic load, its fat and carbohydrate content, the reason why it has a low G.I., additional nutritional information and some handy eating tips, this is a must-read for anyone interested in the G.I. and improving their health.
