What does GI mean?
GI stands for Glycaemic index. This is a ranking of carbohydrate-containing foods based on how they affect blood sugar levels. Low GI foods, such as the Goodness Superfoods cereal range, are digested and absorbed slowly, reducing the rise in blood glucose (and subsequently the hormone insulin) compared to a high GI food. This helps to give you more steady energy levels and keeps you fuller for longer, making that mid-morning energy slump where you reach for something sweet less likely. Eating low GI foods is especially beneficial in the management of blood sugar levels in those with diabetes.
