Dr. Ronald Roth Acu-Cell AI

Glycemic Load and Portion Size

Yes, absolutely. Unlike the glycemic index (GI), which only measures how rapidly a specific carbohydrate raises blood sugar compared to pure glucose, the glycemic load (GL) factors in both the quality and the quantity of the carbohydrates consumed.

The Formula and Purpose

Carbohydrate Content: GL takes into account the total amount of available carbohydrates in a given serving of food.
Portion Size: By multiplying the food's glycemic index by the amount of carbohydrates in a typical serving (and dividing by 100), GL provides a much more realistic and practical assessment of how that food will actually impact your blood glucose levels in the real world.
