Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Glycemic index food data source

I have been using nutritiondata.com for a long time. I got this this morning and thought it might help those of you who were asking about low glycemic foods:

Estimated Glycemic Load (eGL)
For a number of years, we've looked at ways of including glycemic data in ND's analysis. Our biggest obstacle was that glycemic data did not exist for the majority of foods in ND's database. Furthermore, there wasn't a reliable way to generate glycemic values for your recipes or custom entries. After much research, however, we've finally found a practical way to estimate Glycemic Load when the food's Glycemic Index is unknown. Estimated Glycemic Loads are now provided on all Analysis and Total Consumption reports, for benefit of those users who follow GI-related diets.
