The low-glycemic load diet is a powerful diet with proven results in weight loss, weight maintenance, diabetes control, diabetes prevention, and diabetes complication prevention. It provides an eating plan and general dietary guidelines based on how foods affect your blood sugar level.
Typical low-glycemic diets contain from 50–150 GL units per day. For optimal health outcomes, it is highly recommended to keep your daily GL (glycemic load) under 100. This will help you achieve a healthy weight, and keep your A1C level in the normal range. If you have diabetes you have to keep your daily GL (glycemic load) under 50.

The "Glycemic index & Glycemic Load for 550+ foods", gives an overview of the Glycemic load diet and how to use the glycemic load for your foods choice to achieve a lasting weight loss, or effective weight management. It also organizes foods into three categories according to their GI rating and GL rating:

  • Low-GI: Make these foods the centerpiece of your eating plan.
  • Moderate-GI: Eat occasionally with a focus on the glycemic load
  • High-GI: Foods to avoid whether your goal is weight loss, weight management, or diabetes management
