They investigated claims that certain types of honey have a better glycemic index than others and found that one honey is as good as another at least as far as glucose content is concerned. The researchers found very little difference in the Honey's glycemic indices. They ranged from 69.13 to 74.14. All were very close to table sugar's glycemic index of 68.
