Question

4. Differentiate between glycemic index and glycemic load. Which of these two concepts do experts favor as an assessment of blood sugar surges?

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Glycemic load is a ranking system for carbohydrate-rich food that measures the amount of carbohydrates in a serving of food. ... But the glycemic index does not take into account the amount of carbohydrate in a food. So glycemic load is a better indicator of how a carbohydrate food will affect blood sugar.
