Dieting tips

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index diet is based on the gi (or glycaemic index), a list of types of food and an indicator of the ease with which the glucose and energy of the food gets transformed to sugar in your bloodstream. The believe is that slow release types of food (ie those foods with a low Gi score), keep you feeling full longer and help to consume less food without feeling you are always hungry.
It's also extremely beneficial for diabetes sufferers, as the low GI types of food are useful in minimizing increases in glucose amount.
