Note: The Glycemic Index (GI), which supercedes
the older classification of carbs into "simple" and "complex",
classifies carbohydrate in foods according to its immediate effect on
blood glucose levels. The basic categories are high-GI foods (GI value
70+); Intermediate GI foods (GI value 56-69) and Low-GI foods (GI value
55 or less). If you have insulin insensitivity, diabetes or any associated
conditions, choose lower GI foods for optimum blood glucose control.
