FAQs: “Explain the Difference Between Glycemic Index & Glycemic Load.”
-
Before we get started, I want to remove this discussion from a “good” VS “bad” context and submit there are (fewer) some, best use scenarios for cultivating a greater insulin response.
-
Ok, so this ties into my earlier post on White and Brown Rice as well as my, “Stop Snacking!!” Post.
-
GI (Glycemic Index) and GL (Glycemic Load) are terms used to describe and quantify the insulin response, as in how much is released when a single food item (GI) is consumed VS the aggregate effect (GL) of a meal or grouping of food items.
-
With GI, generally the simpler the carb, the higher the GI. For instance oatmeal, a complex carb has a LOWER GI than table sugar, a simple carb.
-
The distinction between Glycemic Index and Load comes into play when you combine food items in a bite/bolus or when we want to measure the insulin response to an entire meal.
-
When combined with fiber and/or protein, the combined insulin response from even simple carbs like the sugar in bbq sauce for instance, is lowered.
-
This is why I recommend eating “meals,” a protein PLUS something, and not “snacks” which usually means a carb, probably a high GI one, by itself.
