With special reference to the glycemic index (GI) in our foods being substantially responsible for the sugar content in our blood circulation.
 
The International Organization for Standardization (ISO) classifies the GI content in our foods on a scale from 1 to 100. I.e., a
  • GI of 55 or less means low
  • GI of 56-69 means medium
  • GI of 70 or more means high
 
Verified by the American Diabetes Association.
 
According to the U.S. Glycemic Index Foundation (GIF), foods with low GI factor help to prevent and manage diabetes.
