The senior staff and associate research fellows of Glycemic Research Laboratories conduct ongoing clinical and analytical studies of individual foods, drinks, packaged foods, nutrients, Pharmaceuticals and Nutraceuticals to determine their respective Glycemic Index, Glycemic Load, and Fat-Storing Response.

For the past 20 years, Glycemic Research Laboratories has been conducting research to determine which foods elevate blood glucose and insulin and ultimately, how humans metabolize foods. By determining how the body metabolizes foods, scientists may then gain insights as to the varying effects different foods have on an individual.

As a nonpartisan organization, Glycemic Research Laboratories is bound not to defend specific industries or products, but rather is committed to expand, through responsible scientific research, a greater understanding of the glycemic index and its relation to foods that are glycemically acceptable for the overweight, diabetic, and health conscious public.

Glycemic Research Laboratories currently conducts clinical studies for major food corporations to determine the fat-storing and glycemic properties of the foods submitted for human studies.
