Glycemic Index vs Glycemic Load

2/27/2013

For the most part, people are starting to learn there's a difference between good carbs & bad carbs. Now take a step further and learn about the glycemic index (GI) of foods. GI is the rate at which glucose will enter your bloodstream when eating a certain food. Then beyond that, there's the glycemic load (GL), based on the GI, but the GL takes things further by establishing the amount of carbohydrates in a food. There is a big difference. Just think - the GI of watermelon is high, but the GL of watermelon is very low.

Have a look at this great infographic and learn something new to help you live healthier and shed weight!
