Hello

Having searched again, various answers and tbh, my heads in a spin at times. Usually, i get a plain English answer here so here it goes.

If I ate some food with a GL 20 and equal amount of food that was low GL and equated to 10 Gl, would that verage out my intake fo GL for that sessions ie a GL of 15/
Thanks again

Sadly no. You add GLs, so you've enjoyed a total GL for that session of 30.
