Estimate for the modified recipe
Original recipe GL unavailable
The estimate applies to the ingredients, amounts and preparation described below.
Calculated GL · 1.4–1.7 / serving
Confidence · Low Some values or assumptions in the calculation are uncertain.
The estimate uses the ingredients and amounts in this version and the available source data. Small amounts of carbohydrate were left out of the calculation.
The range describes only named comparator scenarios. It is not a biological range or confidence interval for the whole meal.
How was the estimate calculated?
This estimate applies only to the amounts and preparation details below. The original recipe nutrition is not a macro package for this version.
The two low-confidence scenarios use strawberry or Canadian wild blueberry GI for raspberry. Bilberry uses the wild blueberry comparator, and the yogurt uses a plain-yogurt category average. The sum omits 0.2373 g available carbohydrate per serving from chia, almond drink and vanilla. The wild blueberry test record does not specify the exact serving state.
GI-unmatched available carbohydrate omitted, up to 0.3 g/serving. Its effect is not assumed to be zero.
Confidence: low. An ingredient-based estimate, not a measurement of the prepared meal.
