What is the Glycemic Index Meal Calculator & How does it work?

The Glycemic Index (GI) is a measure of how quickly carbohydrates in food raise blood glucose levels after eating. A lower GI value indicates that the food will be digested more slowly, resulting in a gradual rise in blood sugar levels.

To calculate the weighted average GI of a meal, you need to consider both the amount of carbohydrates and their respective glycemic indices. This helps in understanding how the meal will affect your blood sugar over time.

GI_{\text{meal}} = \frac{\sum (GI_i \times Carbs_i)}{\sum Carbs_i}

GI_{\text{meal}} = Weighted Average Glycemic Index of the meal
GI_i = Glycemic Index of food item i
Carbs_i = Carbohydrate content (in grams) of food item i
