GLYCEMIC INDEX (GI)
What is GI? Glycemic Index (GI) was developed as a scientific way to measure the blood sugar response to food containing carbohydrates. The quicker the carbohydrates are broken down by the digestive system, the greater the food's affect on blood sugar levels and the higher the GI value. California Raisins have a medium GI and therefore keep your energy at an even level.
