Low Glycemic Index (GI) Food
The Glycemic Index is a ranking of carbohydrates based on their immediate impact on blood sugar levels. Carbohydrates that breakdown quickly during digestion have a high glycemic index because the blood response is fast and high. Carbohydrates with a low glycemic index release glucose more gradually into the blood stream, avoiding spikes.
