Hey healthy peeps!
I thought I'd stop in and let you all know I'm not dead. I did stumble across something this afternoon that I think some of you might find of interest.
I know a lot of you are trying a lot of different things but the core principle in this thread is healthy weight loss. I also know that some of the folks in here are diabetic and therefore probably familiar with glycemic index and glycemic load. It has also informed an awful lot of my food choices over the last year and a half or so.
Granted I never did an exhaustive search, but I had difficulty getting comprehensive reliable information about what those numbers were for a lot of foods. Today I stumbled across what I've been looking for all along. It's been up and running for about five months now and it's from the University of Sydney in Australia. It has a really good G.I. and GL database and it searchable. Since this is the place where a lot of the research has been coming out of I think it's a pretty good bet as a reference.
Anyway here's the link and I hope some of you find it as useful as I do.
