What is Glycaemic Index (GI) and Glycaemic Load (GL)?
The glycaemic index (GI) is a system which assigns a number to carbohydrate-containing foods according to how much the blood sugar increases after consuming each food. It is a tool used for calorie counting or carbohydrate counting.
GI numbers in general are based on how much a food item raises blood glucose. GI values come in three categories. Low GI: 1 to 55, Medium GI: 56 to 69 and High GI: 70 and higher.
Relying on GI values have limitations as they do not reflect the likely quantity you would eat of a particular food.
Researchers therefore have come up with an idea to solve the issue by using glycaemic load (GL), which is a numerical value that indicates the change in blood glucose levels after eating a typical serving of food.

Apa itu Indeks Glisemia (GI) dan Beban Glisemia (GL)?
Indeks glisemia (GI) adalah sistem pernomboran untuk makanan yang mengandung karbohidrat, berdasarkan kepada kadar peningkatan kadungan gula dalam darah selepas memakan makanan tersebut. Ia merupakan kaedah untuk menentukan kandungan kalori atau perkiraan kandungan karbohidrat.
Secara umumnya nombor GI adalah berdasarkan kadar peningkatan glukosa darah akibat daripada pengambilan makanan tersebut. Nilai GI dibahagikan kepada tiga kategori. GI rendah: 1 hingga 55, GI sederhana: 56 hingga 69 dan GI tinggi: 70 ke atas.
Nilai GI mempunyai batasannya yang tersendiri kerana ia tidak mencerminkan kadar pemakanan sesuatu makanan.
Oleh itu, para penyelidik telah menghasilkan kaedah untuk menyelesaikan masalah yang timbul dengan penggunaan nilai GI, iaitu dengan menggunakan kaedah pengiraan beban glisemia (GL), nilai berangka yang menunjukkan perubahan tahap glukosa darah selepas makan sesuatu jenis makanan.

Antioxidants are substances that may protect your cells from free radicals, which may play a role in heart disease, cancer, and other diseases. Free radicals are molecules that are produced when your body breaks down food or when you are exposed to tobacco smoke or radiation.
Low Glycemic Index (GI) : 46
Primera® Red Rice, known as UKMRC9, has a low glycaemic index value (41-48%) which helps to lower and stabilize your after-meal blood glucose level.
Low-GI foods have a GI score of less than 55. They contain carbohydrates that take longer for the body to digest than high-GI foods.
Low-GI foods cause blood sugar levels to rise more slowly than moderate- or high-GI foods.
