Top 3 best carb sources for Pre-workout Meals????

[goose]

that being said, which do you think is a better measure to consider when choosing food, GI or GL?

This is a noob board and 95% dont need to know the answer of this,but its quite interesting for sure.The GI index of foods only tells you about the quality of the sugars in a food in respect of raising blood sugar levels. The GI score tells you nothing about the quantity of carbohydrate within a food. (For example, both carrots and chocolate contain similar high GI, fast-releasing sugars and therefore share the same GI score. However, carrots contain a fraction of the amount of available carbohydrates compared to chocolate. Hence, you would need to eat a lot more carrots to end up with the same effect on your blood sugar levels.) By knowing both the quantity of carbohydrates eaten and the GI of the food in question has it advantages,by positively affecting metabolic rate.I eat the same food every day,mostly,and my carbs are only 250 grams,so its just repeat for me.If my deit was very diverse I would inject this method of action........

i already know the difference between GI and GL, what i meant was, in choosing the foods that you eat everyday, do you put more weight in the GI or GL, personally i like mixing both concepts and trying to find foods that have low GIs as well as low GLs

though maybe i'm highjacking a bit and should write my own thread?

I agree with you,GL is probably more important than GI for weight loss and for health generally. Studies have shown that countries in which people consume a diet rich in foods with high glycemic loads such as the US and the UK are generally fatter and have higher rates of chronic disease, such as heart disease and diabetes.

for me its easy,I dont really count my veg and fruit,as carbs,as the selection is select.Most of my carbs are from lentil,Aktivated Barley and Palatinose and will manipulate the ratios for my needs.
