What should I look for when choosing from these foods?

Does portion size really make that much difference?
The standard serving determines the GL you see on this page. But half-portions cut the GL in half — a simple and powerful strategy. For any food rated Moderate or Limit, try eating half the standard serving and filling the rest of your plate with non-starchy vegetables and lean protein.
Are there even better options outside this list?
Yes — and you can find them by clicking any food and checking the Better Alternatives section on its page. That section shows 4 other foods in the same category with lower glycemic loads. It is one click away from every food on this list.
What about combining multiple foods from this list?
Combining multiple foods from this list compounds the glycemic load. The total meal GL is roughly the sum of each food's GL. If you eat two foods rated Moderate (GL ~15 each), your total meal GL is ~30 — in the high range. Balance your plate: one carb choice, generous vegetables, and a protein source.
