The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index weight loss program is reliant on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list showing food types and an indicator of the rapidity that the energy of the food type gets converted to sugar in the dieters body. The believe is that long-acting foods (ie those food types with a low Gi number), will keep you feeling full for longer and help you to eat less food without starving yourself.
It is also extremeley effective for diabetics, as the low GI food types are useful in controlling increases in glucose secretion.
