Why are the glycemic ratings not already selected
for the foods in the data base so that I must do them
myself?
There are two good reasons you have to select and set
your own glycemic ratings for the foods you are eating.
One, there are three different systems of glycemic
ratings being used (the numeric white bread and sugar
systems or the Acceptable/Unacceptable system.). If we
pre selected and set the ratings for one system of
rating foods glycemically and you were using a different
system they you would have to deselect all the pre-set
glycemic ratings and then change them to your desired
system.
The second reason is far more important according to the
learning behaviorists who helped us design our program
for maximum learning effectiveness. Their principle was
simple by having to rate the food glycemically one time
yourself you are more likely to remember that food's
glycemic rating when you are away from your computer
selecting foods to eat in the real world. The more
different ways you see and interact with a piece of
information the more likely you are to be able to
remember and use it!
For more information on how to use the Glycemic rating
feature in the software see the Glycemic Rating Feature
and other similar help topics in the Software's help
file and see the section of the registered users web
site called Your Diet. Then see the subsection called
