What foods are high on the glycemic index?

Looking for a comprehensive list of foods with theit Glycemic index

• Hi, I have spent hours on the net trying to find a comprehensive list of foods with their Glycemic Index values. I did find a huge database at www.mendosa.com but it is based on Austrailian foods and is hard to use. I also found smaller versions too but they were inadequate. Can someone locate a good list. I would like a list of at least 1000 foods with some of the more basic stuff on there such as butter, chicken, salt, pepper, etc, etc. Again, no Australian lists. There are tons of them out there and most are inadequate for one reason or another. Thanks, mediatek01

  Hi Mediatek! Thank you for asking for an answer! The software I found is here: NutriGenie Glycemic Index Diet for Windows http://members.aol.com/nutrigenie/nggid48.html According to their site, it's database holds 8,000 predetermined items and allows the user to add his or her own personal items as well. The software also allows for detailed nutrition analysis based on the US RDA values and the USDA Food Pyramid. I hope it suits your needs! --Missy
