Corn Starch: GI rating?
In 1 cup of corn starch, there is 117 grams of carbs (only 1 gram of fibre, 0g of sugar), 0 grams of fat, and 0 grams of protein. Would corn starch have a low glycemic index? How would this glycemic index rating compare to that of steel cut oats? Thank you.

Just out of curiosity, what exactly are you doing with 1 cup of corn starch?

In order to get the optimal carbs out of one of my meals, I am going to mix up some corn starch and cottage cheese. I think that may work but I will only do this if corn starch has a low GI lol.
So does anyone know if Corn Starch would have a low GI?

Corn starch pretty much sucks. Really processed, high GI, etc. Poor quality starch.

Yeah, the reason I was thinking about using corn starch was because I needed to fix up the amount of protein I was getting in my meal plan.. 400 grams and a lot of it was from steel cut oats.
