» Alcoholic Glycemic Index
By Jason Gaw | Published 12/9/2005 | Glycemic |

The dictionary defines a glycemic index as a numerical index given to a carbohydrate-rich food that is based on the average increase in blood glucose levels occurring after the food is eaten.
In other words, Insulin elevated by a food is calculated by a clinical rating system called the glycemic index. The concept sounds simple as only carbohydrates have more than minimal effect on blood glucose. The problem with understanding it is, however, that different carbohydrates affect blood glucose to different degrees. All foods, both prepared and natural, all drinks and nutraceuticals can be assigned a numerical value ranging from -0- to 150, which is actually a gauge of insulin response.
