Glycemic Index Vegetable List

The glycemic index of vegetables is typically very low, although some are in the medium and a couple in the high, it’s recommended that you eat lots vegetables (especially the green leafy kinds) if you are following a glycemic index diet.

Adding low glycemic index vegetables to each meal can be a tasty and healthy way to lower the overall glycemic index of a meal. Vegetables are loaded with antioxidant vitamins, minerals, enzymes and fiber that all help you stay healthy and disease free.

Each of the values below is for an average serving of vegetables, but the glycemic index does not go up if you eat more. The glycemic index measures how high your blood sugar rises after you eat a certain food – it is the same no matter how much of the food you eat. Of course if you are trying to lose weight, you want to keep your overall calorie intake to less than your overall calorie expenditure, but since vegetables are typically so low in calories you would have to eat quite a bit of them to exceed your recommended calorie intake.
