Glycemic index

	NutritionData.com Estimated Glycemic Load (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-11-05)
		The Glycemic Load is the most practical way to apply the Glycemic Index to dieting, and is easily calculated by multiplying a food's Glycemic Index (as a percentage) by the number of net carbohydrates in a given serving.
		Glycemic Load gives a relative indication of how much that serving of food is likely to increase your blood sugar levels.
		For this study, Glycemic data was taken from the International table of glycemic index and glycemic load values: 2002 for those foods which could most reliably be matched to existing entries in ND's database.

	Glycemic load - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Glycemic Load (GL) is a ranking system for carbohydrate content in food portions based on their Glycemic Index (GI) and the portion size.
		The usefulness of glycemic load is based on the idea that to some extent, a high glycemic index food consumed over a long period would give the same effect as a low glycemic index food on blood sugar.
		Glycemic load for a single serving of a food can be calculated as the quantity (in grams) of its carbohydrate content, multiplied by its GI, and divided by 100.

	Linus Pauling Institute at Oregon State University
		The glycemic load of a food is calculated by multiplying the glycemic index by the amount of carbohydrate in grams provided by a food and dividing the total by 100 (1).
		The relationship between dietary glycemic load and CHD risk was more pronounced in overweight women, suggesting that people who are insulin resistant may be most susceptible to the adverse cardiovascular effects of high dietary glycemic loads (1).
		Higher dietary glycemic loads were associated with moderately increased risk of colorectal cancer in a prospective study of US men, but no association between dietary glycemic load and colorectal cancer risk was observed in a prospective study of US women (22).

	Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load
		The glycemic index is a tool that measures the speed of entry of glucose (sugar) from a carbohydrate into the bloodstream.
		On the glycemic scale, the highest measurement is for glucose which has the ranking of 100.
		For the most part, foods that are lowest on the glycemic index have the slowest rate of entry into the bloodstream, and therefore have the lowest insulin response.

	CoryHolly.com - Articles - Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load
		The glycemic index (GI) of carbohydrates was developed originally for diabetics, as knowing the effect of food on blood sugar is important for monitoring a diabetic's glucose levels.
		Glycemic index measures the extent to which blood glucose increases after eating a 50g portion of carbohydrate.
		The glycemic load (GL) of a food is calculated by multiplying its glycemic index by its digestible carbohydrate content in grams and dividing by 100.

	Bodybuilding.com - Mauro Di Pasquale - FAQs About The Glycemic Index (GI)!
		Glycemic index is assessed by having one or more people eat a specific amount of a single food (usually 50 grams of digestible carbohydrate [total carbohydrate minus fiber]) and then measuring the change in blood sugar levels compared to the levels achieved after they have eaten a control food such as white bread.
		To calculate glycemic load in a typical serving of food, divide the GI of that food by 100 and multiply this by the useable carbohydrate content (in grams) in the serving size.
		For example, if we eat a high glycemic food or a high glycemic load meal, which by definition triggers a rapid rise in our blood sugar levels, our pancreas is over-stimulated and releases a much larger amount of insulin.

	Glycemic Load
		This measure is the glycemic load, which can be calculated by multiplying the carbohydrate content per serving by the food’s glycemic index number.
		Although you’ll see glycemic index rankings written as whole numbers, they actually are percentages, so if the GI of a food is 71, treat this as 71% when you multiply it by the grams of carbohydrate in a serving.
		Judging from their high glycemic index - up to 97 in some studies - carrots would seem to be a food to avoid if you are carbohydrate sensitive.

	Atkins - Dietary Sugar, Glycemic Load, and Pancreatic Cancer Risk
		The associations of glycemic load and fructose intakes with pancreatic cancer risk were most apparent among women with elevated body mass index (>/=25 kg/m(2)) or with low physical activity.
		Among women who were both overweight and sedentary, a high glycemic load was associated with an RR of 2.67 (95% CI = 1.02 to 6.99; highest versus lowest quartile of intake; P for trend =.03), and high fructose was associated with an RR of 3.17 (95% CI = 1.13 to 8.91; P for trend =.04).
		A diet high in glycemic load may increase the risk of pancreatic cancer in women who already have an underlying degree of insulin resistance.

	Glycemic Load Concept
		For example, although low GI food is usually the preferred choice, a high GI sports drink is perfect during and after running a marathon, as a low GI drink during or after intense exercise could, in fact, can result in hypoglycemia and insufficient replenishment of carbohydrate in the muscle and liver.
		The glycaemic load (GL) of a specific food portion is an expression of how much impact (“oomph”), or power the food will have in affecting blood glucose levels.
		Note that the two slices of bread on their own have a higher GL than an entire meal, in which only one thin slice of bread is used in combination with other low GI foods.
