Montignac diet: glycemic index
-
The glycemic index is a table from which you can read how many percent of the sugar in the carbohydrates you take in is absorbed into the bloodstream. Products with a high glycemic index increase the value of the blood sugar level, which can lead to unpleasant complaints. The Montignac diet makes extensive use of the glycemic index.
