The Glycemic Index

[katepoet]

We've been following it for years now. I simplify it mentally by saying no high fructose corn syrup, and change all yellow and white foods to orange and brown (that aren't meat).

White rice = brown rice, white pasta = brown pasta, white potatoes = orange potatoes, no corn or carrots except in small quantities with other foods.

Use healthy fats - butter in small quantities, and sunflower oil instead of corn or canola (which is a synthetic molecule). And having some fat in a meal slows digestion and helps you lose weight.

That's about it.
