Brief Summary:
The study is to examine the effect of four diets differing in glycemic index and amount of carbohydrate on blood sugar and insulin and in hunger, satiety, and vigor.

Foods with a high GI are those taht cause a large and rapid rise in blood sugar while those with a low GI produce small fluctuations in blood sugar.
