Blood Sugar Impact
Calculation Method
Glycemic Load Formula:
GL = (GI × Carbohydrates) / 100
Where:
• GI = Glycemic Index = 0
• Carbohydrates = 0 grams
• GL = 0 units
Glycemic Load Information
Low GL (≤10): Minimal impact on blood sugar
Medium GL (11-19): Moderate impact on blood sugar
High GL (≥20): Significant impact on blood sugar
Note: Glycemic Load considers both the quality (GI) and quantity (carbs) of carbohydrates in a food. Lower GL foods are generally better for blood sugar control.
