Brown Rice, Potatoes, Wheat Bread

Q: reply to 1560, so is brown rice, potatoes, wheat bread all low GI foods?

A: Brown rice is a good food choice. For bread, make sure it's a whole-wheat bread, not just 'wheat'. Potatoes are best replaced with sweet potatoes. If you absolutely want to eat regular potatoes, stick with with baby red potatoes. And for all potatoes, regular or sweet, best way of cooking them to keep GI low is to boil them.
