Common causes of viral pneumonia include Influenza A or B (flu), respiratory syncytial virus (RSV), parainfluenza, and adenovirus. Worldwide, viral pneumonia is the leading cause of death among children younger than 5 years old.
Fat alone or in combination with protein does not raise blood glucose, so foods such as butter, margarine, oil, and meat do not have a glycemic index value. When fat is combined with carbohydrate, it tends to lower the glycemic index value of the food, since fat slows digestion.
Glycemic Load = GI/100 multiplied by the net. grams of planned carbohydrate (net carbohydrate is the total grams of carbohydrate minus the. dietary fiber). In theory, a large amount of a low GI food may increase your blood sugar as much. as a small amount of a high GI food.
