D o we need to eat only low GI foods at every meal to see the benefit ?
No you don’t need to because the effect of low GI food carries over to the next meal, reducing its glycemic impact. This applies to breakfast eaten after a low GI dinner the previous evening or to a lunch eaten after after a low GI breakfast. This unexpected beneficial effect is called the “second meal effect”. But still we recommend that we aim for at least one low GI food per meal.
