This go-to reference has everything you need to know to use the glycemic index, whether you are trying to lose weight or manage a chronic condition like diabetes.

The 2015 edition of the Shopper's Guide also offers: nutritional data for more than 1,200 popular foods; definitive at-a-glance tables arranged by food category; tips for maintaining a gluten-free, low GI diet; facts about sugar and sweeteners; and shopping lists and tips for everyday meals and dining out.
