For diabetes and hypoglycemia: what is the difference between the glycemic index vx. glycemic load of foods? I've been studying the glycemic index to find low carbohydrate foods that metabolize slowly. I'm not diabetic, but with hypoglycemia I know that I could become diabetic. I'm confused now by the conflicting information I'm getting about the glycemic index not being a true indicator of how our blood sugar levels respond to carbohydrates. For instance, carrots supposedly have a higher GI rating than most vegetables, but react differently in our bloodstream than the same amount of carbs from refined bread or sugar would. Any information would be greatly appreciated. By the way, hypoglycemia is not a problem for me, I rarely experience it since I have avoided sugary foods for years.

Why do certain high protein, low carb foods have low glycemic index but HIGH INSULIN INDEX? This idea perplexes me. Here's a quote from Wikipedia that I am having trouble grasping: "Rather than relying on blood glucose levels, the Insulin Index is based upon the insulin response to various foods, and seems to be more promising than either the Glycemic Index or the Glycemic Load. The primary reason for this is that certain foods (e.g., lean meats and proteins) seem to cause an insulin response despite there being no carbohydrates present. Additionally, other foods seem to cause a disproportinate insulin reaction for its carbohydrate load."
