π‘ Net carbs: total carbs minus fiber.
βοΈ Glycemic load (GL): combines the GI with how many carbs are actually there (GL = GI Γ net carbs / 100). Grains are exactly where GI and GL diverge most often: low is roughly < 10, moderate 10-20, high > 20 (glucose = 100). Read more about glycemic index and load.
πΎ Whole vs refined: whole versions (the entire grain, unrefined) keep the bran and the germ, so more fiber, more minerals, and a GI generally lower than their refined equivalent.
βΉοΈ Sources: generic values from the CIQUAL table (ANSES) and from theUSDA FoodData Central. GI values from Atkinson et al., 2008 and its update 2021.
