That because from a bodybuilding and physique transformation it does....I've been in the game competeing for too long, I've seen it all and learned to let those believe what they so chose. It's their choice. And science may say one thing, but trust me, I've trained with some of the best pros in the world, every one of the uses the gi index as an integral role of nutrition.

Constructive response...
In my efforts, I am concerned with insulin levels. Food GI influences insulin, which I am trying to manipulate. Thus, I eat high GI foods at specific times of the day. (Nutrient Timing).
What are your goals and/or understandings of GI related to your diet?

For I have the desire to do what is good, but I cannot carry it out. For what I do is not the good I want to do; no, the evil I do not want to do this I keep on doing. (Romans 7:15,17-19)

... How does this not help him gain? high GI = more cals = more weight.
To the OP:
I wouldn't be overly concerned with the GI. Just make sure you are getting some protien in with those corn flakes. This sould help dull the importance of GI. Also keep an eye on the serving size. This will also help you lower the impact of a high GI food.He who talks much does little.
Being tired is just a signal to try harder.

Unless you are a competitive bber their is no reason to fear the GI. you need to factor in the overall GL (amount of carbs) as well as rest of your meal, protein, fiber, fat, acid, etc. all these can lower the GI. The score given was at a large dose on an empty stomach with nothing else but the given food. so in the contex of a mixed meal it could be a whole other story.

On a 1 month cycle of Havoc, consuming ~3800-4000 calories a day, with 2 shakes a day made from ISS Gainer Matrix (replaced real foods) I was able to gain 8 lbs of lean mass and 9-10 lbs of fat mass, as well as 3 inches in the waist. I took the shakes midmorning and mid afternoon during times of the day when i was not active. When I went back to a more conventional (for me) low GI diet fat gains slow considerably. Prior to that I had spent nearly a year on a diet with no sugars, so simple carbs, and no fast digesting complex carbs. Up until 8 weeks ago I could tell you within 100 calories of what I had eaten that day. Right now I am active enough that I have not been eating enough to not lose weight no matter what i eat.
My experience means much more to me than ANY study. What works for me or does not work for me may not mean anything to another person, but I do not care how anyone else's body reacts, I am not trying to make them lose fat or gain muscle. I work for me and me alone, if I follow studies and conventional wisdom dogmatically then I WILL fail at my goals, be angry and confused since there is plenty of research that creates great contradictions.
Maybe you guys can get away with replacing all your complex carbs with sugar and not gain fat, but that does not work for me. Never has and never will. Getting into this lifestyle my wife and I actually started eating MORE than we did before. but some how both lost fat and gained muscle, and in her case it was even more surprising since she was already doing spin classes 2 times a week, and other cardio activities 3 times a week. But for some odd reason when she went from 1200-1300 calories with too many high GI carbs to a diet with 1700-1800 calories and low gi carbs she lost fat and gained muscle.
