Why is Granola Gourmet Low Glycemic? Low Glycemic foods provide longer periods of sustained energy and hunger relief. Granola Gourmet uses ingredients that are low or very low on the Glycemic Index. Because of this Granola Gourmet Energy Bars convert to sugar more slowly which reduces the risk of experiencing blood sugar spikes.

Why does it matter if I get a blood sugar spike? Weight loss is impossible if you are hungry.  Blood sugar spikes trigger your body to produce extra insulin.  This extra insulin causes you to become hungry.
