All Bran is very much lower GI.
Can't find a UK tested version (Kelloggs uses different recipes in each country) but for the Australian versions,
(Canadian and Us ones seem to be a bit higher every time
All Bran 30
Bran Flakes 74
All Bran wheat flakes are in the middle at 60

I used to really like bran flakes until I discovered how much of a spike I got from them! 😱

I get a bigger post spike with the bran flakes than what I get with all-bran.
