Daneo - are you talking Gylcemic Load or Glycemic index?
Traditionally on Montiganc popcorn is OUT! It is really bad
the mean of 2 GI tests on popcorn give an Glycemic Index of 72 (plus or minus 17) and a Gylcemic Load of 7.7. (according to Mendosa site and ngr)
This is for air popped, no butter or oil added. So - this is NOT for movie theatre popcorn - that will be worse...
This makes it one of the high GI Low GL foods, which should not really be eaten in Phase 1 Montiganc, but could be consumed in moderate quantities on Phase 2.
Personally, I avoid it like the plague.... still!
Hope it helps
