In terms of exposure to sugar, fatness less elements whose high levels of sugar would reduce exposure to this immunogen," she said, adding that "our paper shows that certain quantities can be correct because they do not result from high exposure to sugar in the diet."

Based on their conclusions, the authors created aGCEMIC INDEXwhich is separated between a low and high consumption of ne5gc.
