hi guys in this video we’re gonna talk

about the difference between the

glycemic index and the glycemic load I

don’t know if you ever heard about this

one probably this one but a lot of

people have not heard about this one but

there’s two different factors here we

want to talk about especially when we’re

dealing with glycemic which means the

sugar the glycemic index is how fast

that carbohydrate is digested or broken

down into the blood and then how much

power that has to raise the blood sugar

okay

and the speed at which it raises the

blood sugar whereas the glycemic load is

a little different it’s the concentrated

amount of carbohydrate or the amount of

carbohydrate in the food so let me kind

of give you an example a carrot a raw

carrot is on the glycemic index 91 right

now 55 or less is low 56 to 69 is

moderate over 70 is high so coordinator

this scale but carrot would be high

because it’s 91 okay the glycemic load

10 is low or 10 or less as low 10 to 20

is moderate greater than 20 is high so

if you look at a raw carrot 91 is pretty

high on the glycemic index but look at

the glycemic load it has a factor of 1

so what we’re doing with the glycemic

load is deducting all the fiber it’s

very fibrous right so this is not going

to influence your blood Sugar’s nearly

as much as most other foods so let’s

kind of go through candy bar okay a

typical candy bar is 68 so that’s some

borderline and pretty high and that’s a

half a candy bar glycemic load is 23 so

it’s still high jellybeans 78 for a 1

ounce and mount of jellybeans glycemic

load is 22 again high there’s not a lot

of fiber and jelly beans corn bread to

110 that’s pretty high it’s off the

charts

that’s 160 gram piece of cornbread

glycemic index of 31 that’s pretty high

grape nut okay that’s 75 for a half of a

cup glycemic load is 31 is pretty high

you wouldn’t think that Grape Nuts would

be that high as a cereal but it’s pretty

high

potato 104 for a one large potato it’s a

36 glycemic load that’s pretty high

carrot 91 1 so that would be fine look

at corn 55 on the glycemic index but 62

on the glycemic load so this is the

worst thing you could possibly eat is

corn especially with related to your

blood sugars now what I want you to do

is I want you to type down the food that

you loved and ate as a child that was a

carbohydrate that wasn’t too good for

you okay mine was combination between

Reese’s peanut butter cups and Doritos

and pizza so what was yours I’m curious

all right talk to you later

hi guys listen I want to thank you so

much for your wonderful comments and I

want to ask you if you wouldn’t mind

giving me your review on Google I put a

link down below I’d really appreciate it

and thank you in advance
