* Glycemic Load: The original glycemic index only compared equal quantities of carbs (50 grams) among foods to evaluate the blood glucose response.

THUS glycemic load multiplies the glycemic index by the typical serving which shows a more accurate picture of the affects the food will have on your blood stream.
