Glycemic Index List of foods for Grains & Pasta

The G.I. food list below shows the Glycemic Index score for many basic grains and pasta.  The G.I score for each food will dictate the speed at which the sugar will be absorbed. A low Glycemic index means the sugar will be absorbed slowly. The higher the G.I score the quicker the sugar is absorbed into the blood. For reduced sugar craving and help with weight loss the lower the G.I score then the better.  

The G.I list also shows the carbohydrate content for each item as this is related somewhat to Glycemic load for the G.I diet. However it does not necessarily mean that a food with a high carbohydrate content will automatically mean a high G.I score.

All foods on our G.I tables are based on 100g (3.5 oz) of product. The portion size doesn't change the Glycemic Index value, but it does count towards the quantity of sugar (carbs) for the item; the bigger the portion the more sugar you would be consuming. This standard portion size simply enables you to make a sugar comparison with other products in the same group, and the different foods listed on other G.I tables.  This means you can see which foods are high or low in carbohydrate content.

* The reason for our standard 100 grams for all the G.I lists of foods is we feel that portion size is a subjective view, thus the size of each portion may vary between individuals. Also, portion size may vary according to bowl, cup or plate size used.

Some G.I or sugar values may be inaccurate and should only be used for general comparison purposes!
