The GI Diet: Diet to Lose Weight

Many people consider the GI Diet as the diet to lose weight and think that the GI diet is related to G.I. Joe, the fictitious American soldier of television cartoon fame – or with American troops of World War II, where the abbreviation “GI” stands for either Government Issue, General Infantryman or Galvanised Iron depending on whom you hear it from.
This is a common misconception because the term GI actually refers to the “Glycaemic Index” of different foods, and the theory that judging foods by their Glycaemic Index can allow the dieter to lose weight and live a more healthy life.
