I'm sorry, I of course meant low GI. Which is in line with "less of stuff that has [...] too quick energy" and "keeping you from having cravings", i.e. keeping your blood sugars stable. But I didn't write that, so good of you to call me out on it!

Yeah I should have figured. Just didn't want anyone who didn't know the meaning of High GI to form an incorrect impression.
You can't call that getting the basics right, as if it's some well established fact. Citation needed.
EDIT: The modern diet, with all its refined white flour, has a much higher GI than in the past. (White flour has a much higher GI than fruits and vegtables, for a start). What do you think is responsible for the rising diabetes epidemic?
