Dieting 101

The Glycaemic Index Diet
The gi index weight loss regime is based around the gi index, a list of food types and an indicator of the speed that the glucose and energy of the food gets changed to sugar in the dieters body. The claim is that long-acting types of food (ie those foods with a low Glycaemic index score), suppress your appetite for longer and help to consume fewer food without craving snacks all the time.
It's also extremely effective for diabetics, as the low GI types of food are beneficial in reducing rises in blood glucose amount.
