Document Summary
Glycemic index vs load: normal blood glucose = 80-100 ml blood or 4. 4-5. 5 millimols/l (mm, insulin secreted from pancreas promotes glucose uptake by cells (including fat cells, reactive or rebound hypoglycemia: Low blood glucose shortly after intake of high glycemic food as a result of effect of insulin: glycemic index. Is a better classification system than simple/ complex cho because although sugars have a high glycemic index (fructose is exception) so do some starches. I. e. , potatoes, bread (white bread: glycemic load. Is the best as it indicated both rate of entry of glucose into the bloodstream and how much. Both gi and gl are altered when consumed with other foods. Body cho stores: blood, liver (glucose from glycogen and releases into blood) Liver"s supply of glucose can be used by muscle when it is transferred in the blood: muscle (largest store) Muscle can only use its cho in the muscle where it is stored.
