(Glycemic Index Number; Glycemic Index Numbers; Glycemic Indices) - A numerical system of measuring the rate of blood glucose generation by a particular food item as compared to a reference item, such as glucose = 100. Foods with higher glycemic index numbers create greater blood sugar swings. These numbers do not correspond to calories or amounts of food intake but rather, depend on the rates of digestion and absorption of these food items.

However, more than just the fiber content of cereal products and carbohydrates may need to be considered; glycemic index may also be important. During the last few years, the evidence has become convincing that coronary heart disease benefit is not conveyed solely by high-fiber carbohydrates but also by low-glycemic-index carbohydrates. High-glycemic-index carbohydrates could be, for example, bagels. ...
