Mary, who has type 2 diabetes, has asked you about the importance of glycaemic index (GI) in her glucose control.  Based on your knowledge, you inform her:       a)  That choosing low GI carbohydrate sources over high GI sources will not have any beneficial impact on her glucose control   b)  That choosing low GI carbohydrate sources over high GI sources might help to "fine-tune" glucose levels when considered along with total carbohydrate intake   c)  To choose carbohydrate sources containing higher levels of amylopectin starch, as it gets digested slower than amylose starch   d)  That she should choose glucose sources (e.g. white rice) over fructose sources (e.g. fruits), as glucose will produce a lower glycaemic response than will fructose
