Glycemic Index Guide - Gabi Steenkamp & Liesbet Delport

Ignorance is a one of the major curses mankind has always had to live with. The effective control of blood glucose levels has always been unsatisfactory and thankfully contemporary scientific research has discovered a method, in the form of the Glycemic Index (GI) and Glycemic Load (GL), to assist greatly in the dietary control of blood glucose levels. The purpose of this guide is to address this ignorance factor regarding blood glucose, which when uncontrolled, can result in major lifestyle diseases such as overweight, diabetes, high blood pressure and all the heart related diseases. As a consumer of food products, you need to be informed of the qualities of the food you eat and how it may affect your blood glucose response and over the long term, your health.
