| Glycemic load ⓘ Glycemic Load (GL) is a metric that measures both the quality (Glycemic Index) and quantity of carbohydrates in a specific serving of food to estimate its impact on blood sugar levels. It is calculated as: (GI × Carbs in grams) / 100. | 20 (medium) |
| Net carbs ⓘ Net Carbs = Total Carbohydrates – Fiber – Sugar Alcohols | 20 g |
| Default serving size ⓘ Serving sizes are mostly taken from FDA's Reference Amounts Customarily Consumed (RACCs) | 0.5 cup (128 g) |
| Acidity (Based on PRAL) ⓘ PRAL (Potential renal acid load) is calculated using a formula. On the PRAL scale the higher the positive value, the more is the acidifying effect on the body. The lower the negative value, the higher the alkalinity of the food. 0 is neutral. | -0 (neutral) |
