Glycemic Indexing is losing it's validity under current scrutiny. A recent study showed people who ate a high GI diet lost more fat with less variance among the subjects than the other group that ate a low GI diet.

A lot of the things we've based ideas on are falling apart under current technical resources and thinking.
