As stated previously in the glycemic index, to maintain your optimum goal weight you need the foods that are digested and metabolized more slowly, the low glycemic foods.

Stay with the low glycemic index list of foods as much as possible. See the glycemic index list of acceptable low glycemic foods below as well as the unacceptable high glycemic foods at glycemic index at the bottom of the page. If you do eat any of the moderate to high glycemic foods be sure that you pair them with ones from the low glycemic list to reduce the high glycemic impact. Rule of thumb, the more processed the food which includes most white foods,the higher glycemic it will be. The high glycemic foods elevate blood sugar and insulin and are quickly metabolized and digested. They stimulate fat-storage and cause food cravings. The glycemic index list of foods must always include both high and low glycemic food lists. Here are the lists - be sure to print these and keep handy!

Glycemic indexing is a very complex subject and it's advisable to do your own research if you are so inclined. Certified testing on the glycemic index list of foods is done at the Glycemic Research Institute through their official clinical testing site, Glycemic Solutions in Florida, the University of Sydney NSW Australia and the University of Toronto, Canada.

Our list of foods is based on a more inclusive one in "The Complete Guide to Fat-Storing Carbohydrates Edition VII" published by the Glycemic Research Institute.
