Glycemic Load

Glycemic load quantifies how much a typical serving of food raises blood sugar.

Definition

The glycemic load measures the total impact of a food on blood sugar by combining its glycemic index with the amount of carbohydrates it contains. It is calculated by multiplying the glycemic index by the grams of carbohydrates and dividing by 100.
