Notes
GI left empty: Sydney / Atkinson tables assay sorghum grain foods, not boiled sorghum syrup. Marketing “≈50” recycles secondary sweetener charts without a syrup assay on file.
Empty-over-invention. Sorghum flour/grain GIs are a different product class.
Notes explain what the open axis or risk labels alone can miss — not medical advice.
Empty cells mean we do not yet have a method-cited source. Rank on the guide tables is the open-rule champion — not medical advice.
