The Glycemic Index – a measure of carbohydrate quality based on how quickly food raises blood glucose blood sugar levels – is a dietary key to health, say the authors of The New Glucose Revolution. Low-GI foods, by virtue of their slow digestion and absorption, produce gradual rises in blood sugar and insulin levels, and have proven benefits for health. The Glycemic Index is highly recommended by Atkins, Fat Flush, and South Beach diets.

The Glycemic Index Meal Planner Plus Version 2.1 is a significantly updated version of Version 2.0 of the Glycemic Index Meal Planner for Web 2.0. It features a much larger database, which has been a concern of earlier users. The new version, which includes licensed material from the American Diabetes Association for a royalty hence the increased price, has over 2000 food items compared to 975 food items in the last version. Further data from the web has allowed us to add additional food items and add Calorie, Protein, Fat, and Saturated Fat data per food Item to the database.

It is important to understand that the Glycemic Index of a food item involves human testing of at least ten people on a restricted diet eating fairly large quantities of the food item and having their blood sugar tested over a period of time. It cannot be determined by simple chemical testing.
