Weight Loss Forum / Low Carb / September 2007Cannot find Glycemic Index resources on the Internet???
It seems ALL entries using Google for "Glycemic Index" reveal BOOKS, Videos and other things for SALE. Their does not seem to be any good resources for people needing a giant list of foods. I would like to take great care with my Glycemic Index but I do not want to spend $100's Anyone know of a place on the web where A LOT of people go to get started with looking into the Glycemic Index? Like I said, Google has PLENTY of results but 2/3rds are people sellings Books and Videos. It's akin to selling me a book on how to do push-ups. Thanks.

Millions would die every year. Guess I found the non-diet diet newsgroup. Myra had some good advice there. Also, GI and GL are two different related things. My reply had nothing to do with spelling or typos. >>> IMHO: switch to "Glycemic Load" >> [quoted text clipped - 9 lines] > > Guess I found the non-diet diet newsgroup.

What are you talking about? There's a difference between a food's ranking on the glycemic index and its actual glycemic load, and I was just acknowledging that to Cubit. Go look up both terms, and you'll see that for yourself. Oh, and I don't play the spelling/grammar game. > Good thing Emergency Rooms don't go by these rules. Millions would die > every year. Maybe they should. "Correctly spelled cheesecake - or DEATH?" > Guess I found the non-diet diet newsgroup. Many long-term low carbers consider it a way of life, not a diet. YMMV, although I have to wonder why someone who refers to him/herself as a "Worthless Person" even bothers. Myra >> Guess I found the non-diet diet newsgroup. > >Many long-term low carbers consider it a way of life, not a diet. Perhaps YOU ALL should CHANGE the name of the NEWSGROUP?? not to get involved in another "war"...have you tried simply typing in glycemic index in the search bar on www.ask.com? This sent me to several sites, one of which not only gave glycemic index values. but info/facts. If this was a legit request I can look and see if I still have the websites addresses. >>> Guess I found the non-diet diet newsgroup. >> >>Many long-term low carbers consider it a way of life, not a diet. > > Perhaps YOU ALL should CHANGE the name of the NEWSGROUP?? >On Sep 15, 1:50 pm, Worthless Person <worthl...@life.wasted.com> >wrote: [quoted text clipped - 14 lines] > >You must not have looked very hard. That sentence is my favorite reply by the way, I always expect it.

I > almost feel lost without it being said. If you hear it a lot, perhaps it's true? Just a thought. I haven't followed a GI or GL diet, but from what people have said here, I think a problem with them is that a given food doesn't always have the same glycemic effect on all people. As I understand it, the whole point of eating low-GI/GL foods is to prevent spikes in blood sugar, and that varies from person to person. So rather than basing your diet on a list of foods, you may need to get a blood glucose tester and measure the effects of different foods on your BG. The lists you've already found can get you started, but for long-term success you may have to fine-tune it according to your own reactions to foods.
