Glycemic Index For Triscuit Crackers
No other food is more detrimental to your glycemic control than sugary drinks. Mindlessly drinking a 44-ounce fountain cola from the local quick market loads your body with over 100 grams of simple/sugar carbohydrate. Not including refills! If you think you’re doing your body good by choosing lemonade or 100% fruit juice, think again. Glycemic Index Value: 28. Glycemic Index Range: Low. Garbanzo beans: O are a good source of fiber. O are a good source of zinc and protein. O are useful as a meat substitute. O contain no cholesterol. GI Value of the Foods ( GI of Crackers ) Crackers. TRISCUIT crackers are Non-GMO Project Verified. Citrus-Goat Cheese Toppers. Check out blood orange, arugula and goat cheese & other delicious Triscuit.
The glycemic index (GI) is a measure of the effect carbohydrates have on blood glucose levels. Understanding the GI values of specific foods can help reduce harmful spikes in blood sugar, as sugars and carbohydrates are broken down and your metabolism releases insulin to aid in digestion. Limiting your intake of high GI foods is a first-step towards controlling your cravings, increasing energy, and weight loss.
The GI is entirely based on the quality of carbohydrates and sugars you are intaking, not the quantity (although if you want to include portion control as well you can look at Glycemic Load (GL) of foods, looking for levels < 20). By its very definition, foods with minimal to no carbohydrates will have no measurable GI value — so in general carb-free foods such as most meats, seafood, poultry, and vegetables have no GI value.
Foods with a low GI (scores of 0-54) help you feel less hungry, provide you with a feeling of having more energy, and may lead to weight loss and provide a reduced risk of diabetes and improved heart health. While looking through these GI scores, please be aware by itself this does NOT constitute a diet — there are some fruits with higher GI scores than some less-healthy processed food snacks. The food list by itself is not a diet plan, its simply a measure on the effect of how your body breaks down the carbohydrates and that food’s impact on your insulin. To learn more, see our blood sugar chart.
Foods with a high GI score are associated with a fast, sharp spike in insulin. This often leads to intense cravings shortly after you’ve just eaten – for me a good example is after eating a toasted bagel… I want another one immediately. I don’t feel full, I want more… That’s from foods with a high GI.
High GI Foods = GI of 70+ (Try to avoid these)Medium GI = GI of 55-69 (use caution)
Low GI = GI of 0-54 (these are your target zone, but remember this doesn’t mean these are necessarily “good for you foods”, they’re just a representation of their GI score.

Glycemic Index Chart
The Glycemic Index chart below uses a scale of 1 to 100 for Glycemic Indexand 1 to 50 for Glycemic Load values, glucose having the highest GI value of 100 and GL of 50.
Glycemic Load Triscuit Crackers
For instance a food with a glycemic index of 30 doesn’t raise the blood glucose that much at all , but GI doesn’t consider how big the serving size is or how much you eat. GL does include the size: It is simply ‘carb content of the food’ times (‘GI value’ divided by 100).
Glycemic Index For Triscuit Crackers Recipe
Low GI : 55 and under — Low GL : 10 and under
Medium GI : 56 to 69 — Medium GL: 11 to 19
High GI : 70 and above — High GL : 20 and above.
But you will notice differences between different glycemic index charts , hence the below glycemic index and load values are approximate figures and averages of different studies on that specific food.
They give you a general and useful information on how foods raise your blood sugar. No single figure will tell you everything about a food, there will be other factors to consider.
