How was the estimate calculated?
The serving’s GL is calculated from ingredient data. Confidence describes the evidence behind the calculation. Your blood sugar response may vary.
- tomatoes · GI value reported in a source
- plain yogurt, 3.9% fat · Food group average
Calculated ingredient-based estimate per serving, not a measurement of the prepared meal. All supported positive carbohydrate amounts are included. An unmatched individual portion under 1 g available carbohydrate per serving may be omitted only while all such portions total less than 2 g per serving; the omitted amount is disclosed. This is an editorial tolerance, not a clinical precision limit.
Small portions omitted: 1 g available carbohydrate per serving.
