Fruits: grapefruit, apples, cherries, oranges, and grapes have a low glycemic index!. Fruits have a lower G!.I!. than fruit juices, because the fiber in the fruit slows the absorption of the fruit sugar!. A whole apple will be more brain-friendly than apple juice; a whole orange better than orange juice!. Freshly-made juice containing a lot of pulp is more brain-friendly than filtered juice!.
Cereals and grains: oatmeal and bran have the lowest G!.I!. Other foods with a favorable G!.I!. are spaghetti and rice!. Corn flakes and sugar-coated cereals have higher G!.I!.s!.
Vegetables and legumes: Legumes, such as soybeans, kidney beans, chick peas, and lentils have the lowest glycemic index of any food!. Potatoes and carrots have a much higher G!.I!.
Dairy products: Milk and yogurt have low glycemic indexes, slightly higher than legumes, but lower than fruits!. Plain yogurt has a lower glycemic index than yogurt with fruit preserves or added sugar!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
