Btw. Google images has many GI charts!Originally Posted by GirlyGymRat
Just to chime in - there's complex and simple carbs. No such thing as fast and slow![]()

Glycemic index is irrelevant. I mean totally undue. It`s determined in isolated conditions - individuals were fed with single carb source post night fast. In real life, this is unfeasible - when you combine foods glycemic index alleviate seriously. Protein lowers GI, fiber lowers GI, fats lower GI.
Some carbs have been shown not to have spike insulin too much, not on account of low GI but rather faster uptake from blood stream.
Saturated/hydrogenated fats and simple carbs have synergistic effect and spike insulin greatly. Fries are good to mention hear - although complex carbs with fats, elevate insulin terribly.
What you need to pay attention to is Glycemic load and caloric density of given foods.
Spread your cabs evenly throughout the day, always include protein and fibrous veggies, thus you`d keep blood sugar stable, appetite at bay and not be drowsy.
2nd one really depends, I you eat meat with your potatoes they will digest slower than potatoes alone.
Yams/sweet potatoes are slower than white ones tho.

well, i do agree that protein should be included in each meal, however my opinion is that there is a big difference whether you eat chicken with white rice or brown one...decomposition and absorption is going differently...so does your results...
Most fruit/fructose is a slow disgusting carb, however some fruits are high GI because they have other components, like bananas for example have alot of starch which makes them high GI.
White potato is a fast carb, but when you eat them with protein and fats, this lowers the GI
Oats are slow.
If you eat the rice or pasta with fats and protein, this slows down digestion making them lower GI
Fruit, generally, contain 3 types of sugars, fructose, glucose and sucrose in varying %'s depending on the type of fruit. So, even though fructose is low GI, it doesn't mean that the whole fruit is as low as the fructose score.
Bananas do contain starch too, but as they ripen that starch converts to 'sugars' rendering a particularly ripe banana almost devoid of starch.
As for the rest? Don't sweat it, my carb sources contain white (red skinned) potatoes and cornflakes on a regular basis.

Yeah some fruit has a higher GI score then others, most are on the lower side though.
Important point about fructose is it is mainly used by the body to feed the liver, the liver only has the capacity to hold 100g of liver glycogen. So only a couple of pieces of fruit are recommended per day, you could maybe have more if you are doing alot of exercise.
I try to stick with berries, if I have fruit. Fruit is a piece of candy without the wrapper.Originally Posted by 951thompson
