A study conducted in 2008, by Alan Barclays, Joanna McMillan Price, Prof. Jennie Brand-Miller, and colleagues, demonstrated there is substantial evidence people eating a high GI (Glycemic Index) or a high GL (Glycemic Load) diet will be at an increased risk of developing Type 2 diabetes and heart disease. Plus, it also demonstrated there is good evidence to link high blood sugar levels with gallstones and even some types of cancers. This was the first study of its kind to see if any association was present between the Glycemic Index (GI) and Glycemic Load (GL) of food, and the chances of developing such lifestyle-related diseases. This study was published in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition, March 1st, 2008.
