Talk to your healthcare team
Always consult your doctor or a registered dietitian before making significant changes to your diet, especially if you have diabetes, prediabetes, kidney disease, or another medical condition, if you are pregnant or breastfeeding, or if you take medication that affects blood sugar or blood pressure. Low-carbohydrate and very-low-carbohydrate diets can change medication needs.
About the values on this site
Glycemic index and glycemic load values are representative figures based on published testing. Actual values vary with the specific product, variety, ripeness, preparation, portion size, what else is eaten in the same meal, and individual differences in how people respond. Treat the numbers as a guide, not a precise prediction of your own blood sugar.
Diet food lists reflect the general published principles of each eating plan. They are not official materials from any diet program, and Glycemic Edge is not affiliated with South Beach Diet, Atkins, or any other brand mentioned on this site.
No guarantees
We work to keep information accurate and current, but we make no guarantees about its completeness or accuracy. Use of this site is at your own risk. If you think you may have a medical emergency, contact your doctor or emergency services immediately.
