  5. What is the Glycemic Index? The glycemic index (G.I.) is a rating to indicate how rapidly a particular food will raise your blood sugar and insulin. Glucose is the standard; it rapidly raises your blood sugar, and has a high index score of 100. All foods can be rated relative to glucose.

  6. The GI Traffic Signal • Green Light Foods - GI less than 55 are “low glycemic.” Eat more of these! • Yellow Light Foods - GI of 55 to 70 are “moderately glycemic.” Slow down on these? • Red Light Foods - GI of 70 to 100 are “high glycemic.” Eat less of these!
