Learning how to properly use a Glycemic Index Chart can have several positive benefits for your overall
health and wellness. Unfortunately, most people have never heard of the Glycemic Index let alone know how to use the information found in the chart. Before I explain this information let me share a real life story.
When I was growing up my favorite breakfast cereal was Rice Krispies. I loved the taste and when you poured on the milk they made that neat “Snap, Crackle, Pop” sound. But one thing I noticed, even as a child, was that within two hours or less I was hungry again. As a kid I thought it was because of all the air holes in the cereal. The Glycemic Index hadn’t been developed so there was no chart to tell me that Rice Krispies has an index value of 82. This value makes it a high glycemic food, which causes your blood sugar to spike followed by a crash and extreme hunger.
