The glycemic index, perhaps best known as the GI, is a handy measure used by health professionals and diet enthusiasts. It's much like a league table of carbohydrate-rich foods, stacked up against pure glucose which ranks 100 on the index. The foods are categorized on their potential to increase your blood sugar levels, the lower the score, the lesser the impact on your sugar levels.
Now, heading to our superstar- Monk fruit.
