Weight Loss Forum / General Topics / May 2004GI resource?
Does anyone know of a good reference that lists the glycemic index of different foods -- books, websites, etc.? I need a good reference I can use to look up various things. Thanks -- M9 http://www.glycemicindex.com/  Signaturerosie SOME OF THE COST OF WAR: http://www.infoshout.com/the_toll.htm lots of stuff on the web, but remember, this is all very inconsistent. Also, some products acquire a higher GI when processed. For example, oat bran may have one glycemic index if it is simply boiled for hot cereal, and a higher index when it is overprocessed into "oat bran cereal flakes" and mixed with other stuff. Beware of processed foods that imply a low GI based on their unprocessed ingredients. Raising GI is what they do to make the product more attractive. i > Does anyone know of a good reference that lists the glycemic index of > different foods -- books, websites, etc.?

I agree and that is exactly why I asked if the doctor was involved. Going out and doing stuff based on the internet without telling your doctor leaves everybody guessing if something goes wrong. > lots of stuff on the web, but remember, this is all very inconsistent. > [quoted text clipped - 12 lines] > > different foods -- books, websites, etc.?

I would hazard to guess that asking a typical doctor about GI is not going to yield a high quality guide to food decisionmaking, either. GI is probably not a bad guide, if the person eats unprocessed foods. If it says that GIof an apple if 54 (I am making it up), then eat an apple, not "apple chips". i >> lots of stuff on the web, but remember, this is all very inconsistent. >> [quoted text clipped - 18 lines] > char*p="char*p=%c%s%c;main(){printf(p,34,p,34);}";main(){printf(p,34,p,34);} >> "It's never too late to have a happy childhood."
