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.
Can cooking method change the glycemic impact?
Restaurant portions are often 2-3x the standard serving shown on this page. If you eat out, mentally halve the portion or ask for a box at the start of the meal. The GL doubles with double the portion — awareness is your best tool.
