Glycemic index (GI) is a measure of the effect of the consumption of food on blood glucose levels. The GI ranks the blood glucose response of a food on a scale of 0 to 100. It is possible to have food with GIs above 100 when the blood glucose response of a food is greater than that of the control food. High glycemic index foods (70+) are those that are rapidly digested into small sugar molecules (mono and disaccharides) and rapidly raise blood glucose levels after eating.

GL is calculated by multiplying the Glycemic Index (GI) times the carbohydrate content of the food in grams and then dividing by 100. Each unit of GL represents the glucose raising effect of 1 gram of glucose or white bread depending on which control food was used in the determination of the GI.

What does “wholeistic” mean, and why is it important?

Wholeistic Solutions FAQ
For a supplement to be “wholeistic”, the nutrients in that supplement must be fully digestible and available to the cells of the body without robbing from the body's own nutrient stores.

So then does this mean long- range transport of dust and pollutants is not important?

FAQ's on Asian Dust and Pollution
Well, I didn't say that. These pollutants add to local sources. To explain this I can use the EPA's Air Quality Index (AQI). An AQI of 0 represents no pollution (impossible) and for most pollutants an AQI of 100 is the allowable limit where there are demonstrable health effects. So lets say your background air (the air that blows into your region) is normally at an AQI of 20 and your local air pollution adds 70, for a total of 90.

What does "Duty Cycle" mean and why is it important?

FAQ
Duty cycle is a rating that is given on all electric actuators. It is a relationship between actual running time and necessary rest. A unit which has a 100% (continuous) duty cycle would be able to run in ideal conditions indefinately at ambient temperature. However, a unit which has a 25% duty cycle would require 3 times the amount of rest time as actual running time. This is important when using an electric actuator for modulating service.

Why is pH balancing important. What does it mean?

Press Room: SGN Nutrition Online Store
pH is the abbreviation for potential hydrogen. The pH of any solution is the measure of its hydrogen-ion concentration. The higher the pH reading, the more alkaline and oxygen rich the fluid is. The lower the pH reading, the more acidic and oxygen deprived the fluid is. pH ranges from 0 to 14, with 7.0 being neutral. Anything above 7.0 is alkaline; anything below 7.0 is considered acidic. If you have a health problem, your system is most likely acidic.
