ESSENTIALS OF THE GI INDEX COURSE

Carbohydrates are ranked on a scale (called the glycaemic index or GI) according to how fast they are absorbed into your bloodstream. The faster these substances are absorbed, the higher the score the carbohydrate will get on the GI index. Our Fundamentals of the Glycaemic Index CPD Course will teach you everything you need to know about GI.
