Glycemic Index Estimator
What is Glycemic Index?
The Glycemic Index (GI) measures how quickly a food raises blood glucose levels. Low GI foods (< 55) cause gradual rises ideal for sustained energy, weight management and diabetes prevention. High GI foods cause rapid spikes.

Low GI (< 55)
Foods like legumes, most vegetables, whole grains and many fruits digest slowly, providing sustained energy and better blood sugar control.
Medium GI (55–70)
Brown rice, whole wheat bread and ripe bananas fall here. Best consumed around physical activity when your body can use the glucose efficiently.
High GI (> 70)
White bread, white rice, sugary drinks and processed snacks cause rapid blood sugar spikes. Pair them with protein and fiber to slow absorption.
