Here it is "A typical low glycemic index diet is low in fat and high in carbohydrates" Many low GI diets I read about are difficult to tell apart from low carb diets. That is because in essence both of these diets are trying to accomplish the same thing, lowering the negative/harmful effects of carbs. Both diets usually allow for room for much of non starchy vegetables but limit starchy one and all starchy carbs. Youre diet can be a relatively high fat diet and still be a low GI or a low carb diet. Another argument agains that most GI diets are low in fat and high in carbs (it is the high carb part in the sentence that I have the problem with) is that many low GI authors realize that it is important also to take the Glygemic load (GL) into account and quite frankly it is impossible or extremely difficult to keep a low GL diet on a low fat/high carb regime. I am well aware of that low GI diets in general advocate less fat then low carb diets. But the fat ratio doesn't define these diets, the carb does, or more correctly, the quantity of carbs in the low carb diet and the GI of carbs in the low GI diet. So I believe saying a typical low GI diet is high in carbs is not correct, but at the same time not entirely wrong as there are probably low GI diets out there which are high in carbs.
