I downloaded the GI/GL chart and was astonished to see that the glycemic index of beer is 104 -- higher than glucose! Turns out that beer contains a lot of maltose, and maltose spikes blood sugar even more than glucose does.

Excellent explanation about foods not rating as good or bad. My decision on what food to chose is by asking myself, “if I don’t eat this, what will I eat instead?” So one choice may not be bad but instead I chose a better alternative. Knowing the GI/GL of foods give me better choices. Thanks ! ❤ Sheri J.

Best and honest and scientific. Respect.

Profesor Kratz: what you teach is very informative and your way to make the information simple is valuable. Thank you.

I really love your videos. They appeal to the nerd in me. 5 years ago, in the medical laboratory where I worked, it was time for me to complete a new reference range study for A1c. I set out using blood specimens from hundreds of “healthy” individuals… blood donors. My hope was that I’d have enough data points to establish reference ranges for male and female patients to replace the single range we were currently using. As the specimens came pouring in, I used criteria given me by our pathologist to weed out prospective samples from people who were not healthy and therefore unsuitable for participation in our study. The limiting criteria were the following: normal BMI, normal fasting blood glucose, normal cholesterol and triglycerides. From hundreds of samples, using those parameters, I ended up not even having enough specimens for a single unisex reference range study. So, it naturally makes me wonder how GI participants were deemed healthy. The scourge of insulin resistance has gained a stubborn foothold everywhere in the last 50 years and gets worse every year.

I appreciate your videos SO very much! I am well-versed in statistics and science; however, it is so refreshing to hear these concepts explained clearly - accompanied by simple, hand drawn charts. I will be sharing your videos with my 76 year old mother, and I'm quite confident she will be able to follow along with no issues. In addition, I plan to share your channel with my primary care physician. I think his diabetes patients could benefit from your easy to understand videos. Thanks again!! 🙂
@chenskitchen
This is the best lesson and most clear and informative one!
@mikemundell4349
An absolute excellent explanation of GI & GL, thank you very much.
@napapornrosiri9314
Thank so much I m glad that I found this Videos 🙏🙏🙏
@annmarieboaten
Thank you again for this life changing information on Giycemic index and how it affect health outcome. I appreciate how your explanations are clare backed up with science. I will use this information to choose my foods wisely so I can benefit from the health benefits.
@hafeezali1234
Hi Sir, this is the first time I came across your video. The way you explained and break down things it makes so easy to understand. Thank you very much!
@krollpeter
That is excellently explained, very useful information! Now I see that I can eat a lot more items than I actually thought, and some others I can actually enjoy in moderation.
@TomGarner99
Very useful information. I understand glycemic index and load much better now.
@JP-ATexas
Exactly what I was hoping you’d explain
@marlashaw
❤ I absolutely love your content. Such clear explanation 👌
@JP-ATexas
Truly excellent YT series … thank you
@Ramadhanbulan2025
Thank you so much.. it's a very useful information about GI and GL..
@ladyvyking
I love your direct and serious approach to topics. Nevertheless, I would invite you to explain what the GI curves really tell: do I produce more/less sugar, do I have to burn his sugar more/less intensively, what does our body expects us to feed it with? Please move forward to the next more practical step. Tks!

I really love this channel. Precise information and limited to what is known (not claims extrapolated far from what is evident). Thank you for the content. Personally I'm not aware of problems with my blood sugar and no-one in my family has problems with it anymore. So I have no personal interest in watching this. I eat according to Harvard's Healthy Eating Plate and Pyramid and I eat vegan for ethical reasons (with a few additional things that do not break the overall pattern described by Harvard Health). Since I started doing that I have no health issues related to food. But I listened to this and the glucose monitor video just for the scientific education. A few questions came to mind. I ask them in a separate comment.
