FAQs

What does Table A1 report in this dataset?

Table A1 reports glycemic index (GI) and glycemic load (GL) values for individual foods, including measurements referenced to glucose and to bread.

How is GI presented in the table?

GI is shown as GI (Glucose = 100) and GI (Bread = 100), with values provided for each food item.

What additional measurements are included besides GI and GL?

For each food item, the table includes subject type and number, reference food and time period, serve size, available carbohydrate per serve, and GL per serve.
