sugar after eating high-GI foods.

What is
Glycemic Load?
While the
glycemic index (GI) measures glycemic response after consuming
a standard amount (50g) of useable carbohydrate from a particular food,
the glycemic load (GL) ranks foods according to how much carbohydrate
is in a regular serving of the food in question.
Note:
If a particular food has Glycemic Load (GL) of zero, usually this is because
the food contains little or no carbs (eg. meat, fish, cheese, eggs etc.).
Where very few variations of a food type are listed, this is because very
few variations have been "tested" to determine their GI value.
