Hi Verenice,

I would suggest to calculate it for yourself, these are good resources:
http://www.shaklee.com/pws/library/p..._gl_tables.pdf
Glycemic Index and Glycemic Load
http://www.mendosa.com/GI_GL_Carb_data1.xls

I like to keep a GL of max. 100 on a day, but that could be different for everyone. I've read some research that linked a daily GL of >175 to some problems. (can't remember exactky what problems, from reading so much)

Further on, I really believe in doing what feels right for you.

Good luck!
