A low glycemic diet, stressing the consumption of foods low on the glycemic index, can help to lower blood sugar levels, reduce the risk of some forms of heart disease and can aid in weight loss. Carbohydrates that do not raise a person's blood glucose levels too much, too fast are considered the more desirable foods to eat on a low glycemic diet. Diets that follow this regimen include the The New Glucose Revolution Diet, Sugar Busters, the Atkins Diet and the South Beach DietPCC Natural Markets: Glycemic Index
