Other question regarding Glycemic index and glycemic load

Is complex carbohydrate always have higher than the sweet food ?

It's true most of the time but some starchy foods like potatoes or white bread score even higher than honey or table sugar (sucrose)!

WHY glycemic Index Important ?

The higher the glycemic index , the greater the rate of blood sugar rises . in response the faster the insulin release. With these faster insulin response you may feel an initial elevation in energy and mood as your blood sugar rises, but this is followed by a cycle of increased fat storage, lethargy, and more hunger!

What is glycemic load ?

(Net Carbs are equal to the Total Carbohydrates minus Dietary Fiber)

It will bring more problem to diabetic patient as diabetes type ii have difficulty in insulin response to bring down the blood glucose level.

GL = GI/100 x Net Carbs

Your glycemic response can be controlled by consuming low-GI foods and/or by restricting your intake of carbohydrates
