carbohydrate intake and glycemic index in children
"Carbohydrate intake refers to the amount of carbohydrates consumed by children, which includes sugars, starches, and dietary fibers. Glycemic index, on the other hand, measures how quickly these carbohydrates from food are converted into glucose and enter the bloodstream. Understanding both carbohydrate intake and glycemic index in children helps in monitoring their diet and managing blood sugar levels."
