What is Low GI Honey? 

The Glycemic Index (GI) is a relative ranking of carbohydrate in foods according to how they affect blood glucose levels. Those with a low GI value (55 or less) are more slowly digested, absorbed and metabolised and cause a lower and slower rise in blood glucose and, therefore usually, insulin levels. An accurate determination of the GI values of food can only be measured using valid scientific methods. It cannot be guessed by looking at the composition of the food or the nutrition information panel on food packaging. Capilano Low GI honey has been tested low GI (42) by an independent laboratory using approved methodology based on the international standards for testing.
