Glycemic Index


What is glycemic Index ?
Glycemic Index is  Index that ranks carbohydrates based on their rate of glycemic response (i.e. their conversion to glucose within the human body). Glycemic Index uses a scale of 0 to 100, with higher values given to foods that cause the most rapid rise in blood sugar. Pure glucose serves as a reference point, and is given a Glycemic Index (GI) of 100.In Other word , the faster the blood sugar rise the higher the GI
