I was major cranky and getting depressed on Atkins and when I switched to a whole food, real similar to South Beach, I felt a whole lot better. No irritability, migraines, cravings, and losing weight. I am losing weight too.

The glycemic load is discussed in South Beach too. It makes more sense when you factor in the fiber, fat, protein, acidic level, all factors of how fast a food impacts insulin release.

I ran across something interesting re low-glycemic foods. One list said that whole milk had a higher glycemic number than 1% milk. Another list said that 1% milk had a higher glycemic number than whole milk. Who are we supposed to believe?
