5. The glycemic index (GI) measure the rate at which
carbohydrates are absorbed into the bloodstream. Those foods with a
high glycemic index, such as table sugar, are absorbed very fast,
and those with a low glycemic index, such as lentils, are absorbed
very slowly. Would the preferred food for a diabetic be one with a
high GI or a low GI? Explain your answer.

carbohydrate sources. Of the six treatments, the three with the
highest glycemic effects were potato,...
