Glycemic Index values have been added for a specific subset of database foods, from the latest tables that were published in the fall of 2002 (Am J Clin Nutr 2002;76:5-56). Since this subset of foods is small compared to the size of the database itself, a list of available ESHA codes for foods that contain this data is posted on our web site (www.esha.com) in this pdf file.
In order to view the glycemic index data that is in the program, follow these steps:
- Open a food list (either Person or Recipe) and enter in the ESHA code number of one or more foods from the glycemic index list that is posted on the web siteabove.
- Choose Calories, Carbohydrates, Glyc Indx (glycemic index) and Glyc Load (glycemic load) from the View/Nutrients to View menu.
- View the Multi-column or spreadsheet report.
