Implications of exceeding the upper level of intake (UL) Mandatory folic acid fortification of all bread at levels of 135 µg/100 g, could potentially lead to a small percentage of individuals exceeding the Upper Level of Intake (UL) for folic acid (Table 1). The proportion of Australian and New Zealand consumers exceeding the corresponding age-specific UL is shown in Table 2. As the dietary intake assessment was redone between Draft Assessment and Final Assessment to account for the change of food vehicle (from bread-making flour to bread), any changes in exceedances above the UL have been noted. 1.1 Young children If mandatory fortification of bread with folic acid at a level of 135 µg/100 g were introduced, it is estimated that a small proportion of young children may exceed the UL – up to 7% of 2-3 year olds and 3% of 4-8 year olds.

The GI of the test food was calculated by expressing the test food's glucose AUC value as a percentage of the potato's AUC value. 26White rice was used as the reference food, but glucose was also tested and had a GI of 122. The observed GI was multiplied by 100 and then divided by 122 to convert it to a GI on the glucose scale (ie, glucose = reference food with a GI of 100). 27Blood glucose measured at 30-min intervals. 28GI for sugars calculated from the glycemic response for a meal of sugar and rolled oats minus the glycemic response for the oats alone. 29Both the test food and the reference food contained 30 g carbohydrate. 30Total weight of the test food was 25 g, whereas reference food contained 25 g available carbohydrate.

I am able to reproduce it here courtesy of the author, Professor Jennie Brand-Miller of the University of Sydney. It is based on a table in different format but no more foods published December 2008 in Diabetes Care. However, only the abstract is free online there. This table includes the glycemic index and glycemic load of more than 2,480 individual food items. Not all of them, however, are available in the United States. They represent a GI true international effort of testing around the world. of 55 The glycemic index (GI) is a numerical system of measuring how much of a rise in circulating blood sugar a carbohydrate triggers–the higher the number, the greater the is blood sugar response. So a low GI food will cause a small rise, while a high GI food will low; trigger a dramatic spike. A list of carbohydrates with their glycemic values is shown GL below. A GI is 70 or more is high, a GI of 56 to 69 inclusive is medium, and a GI of 55 of or less is low. 10 The glycemic load (GL) is a relatively new way to assess the impact of carbohydrate is consumption that takes the glycemic index into account, but gives a fuller picture than http://www.mendosa.com/gilists.htm (1 of 127) [12/17/2011 8:14:06 AM] Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load does glycemic index alone.
