It was a shame that they didn't have more details on low GI foods as I bet most people don't know one if it bit them on the bum. Low GI foods are essentially whole unprocessed grains... Good = basmati rice. Bad = normal rice Good = rye. Okay = wholegrain multigrain. Bad = white and crusty rolls Okay = sweet potato. Bad = normal potatoes That sort of info is essential when you're doing a high protein, low carb diet. Andrew I think it was about all we could expect.

Low GI foods are essentially whole unprocessed grains…

Good = basmati rice. Bad = normal rice
Good = rye. Okay = wholegrain multigrain. Bad = white and crusty rolls
Okay = sweet potato. Bad = normal potatoes

That sort of info is essential when you’re doing a high protein, low carb diet.

Let's face it; the program is dumbed down to a points system that is easy to understand (at least for the primary demographic of WW). Start including stuff about fast and slow sugars, and you'll instantly lose half of your revenue stream, based on demographic.
