Diabetes index (by FoodStruct)

Taking into account the glycemic response, the insulin response and the serving size of foods (nutrients that affect the diabetes most according to research) we have created a new value called the diabetes index.

(0.4*GI) + (0.3*GL*5) + (0.3*II)

Low diabetes index values demonestrate a lower glycemic and insulin response.
