The g.i. factor: introduction

        THE G.I. FACTOR: INTRODUCTION
The right kind of carbohydrate can make an important contribution to the quality of your life. The glycaemic index, what we have called the G.I. factor, will help you choose the right amount of carbohydrate and the right sort of carbohydrate for your lifestyle and your wellbeing. It will reduce your risk of developing heart disease or diabetes.
The G.I. factor is a scientifically validated tool in the dietary management of diabetes, weight reduction and athletic performance. Foods with a low G.I. factor help people control their hunger, their appetite and their blood sugar levels. These foods actually help athletes prolong endurance when eaten before an event. After the first event, foods with a high G.I. factor have been shown to replenish energy stores faster and give athletes greater staying power when competing in further events.
The G.I. factor (glycaemic index) of foods is simply a ranking of foods based on their immediate effect on blood sugar levels.
• Carbohydrate foods that break down quickly during digestion have the highest G.I. factors. Their blood sugar response is fast and high.
• Carbohydrates which break down slowly, releasing glucose gradually into the blood stream, have low G.I. factors.
