    Sunshine sugar, based in NSW, has been making low GI sugar for the past three years.

    So what is the GI of this low GI sugar? I do not see it in the link.

    Given that the GI normal refined processed white sugar is only 65, a lot less than a lot of health foods - plus there are a lot of other natural sugars that are low GI such as Fructose at 19.

    The real issue is not so much the GI of sugar but how much we use - soft drink - heaps and cakes etc heaps also.

    If the new sugar can deliver the required taste - then it is great but acquiring a taste that does not require excessive sweetness is a better solution.

    I do use sugar in moderation, and cannot stand artifical sweetners - the do not sweeten but make things bitter - the major issue is when sugar is cooked further and turned into glucose that is the problem - make glucose low GI and you would be on a winner.

    You won't buy it from Coles , our local Coles keeps deleting anything off the shelves that my wife's dietician tells her to get that is low in sugar. The dietician actually goes to shop & finds things for her but once I have bought there stock it is never restocked . Usually gets replaced by home brand product that is higher in sugar & made OS.

    That is just raw brown sugar.

    I note that most of these low GI sugars do not actually say what their GI is - can someone tell me?

    I looked at the nutrition label of the CSR Low GI Sugar and compared it to normal white sugar - basically no difference

    CSR Low GI Sugar per 100g - 1690 kj
    carbohydrate/sugars 99.4g

    Normal white sugar per 100g - 1700 kj
    carbohydrate/sugars 100g

    So no real difference

    So can someone list the GI of these low GI products - I cannot find them.
