Question

Brianna's doctors advise her to eat no more than 30 grams of carbohydrates per

day for her snacks. Because dietary fiber doesn't negatively affect blood sugar
levels, she doesn't need to count it toward her carbohydrate total. If Brianna eats
two servings of each of these foods, will she fall under her doctor's recommended
limit for her snack? Explain your reasoning.
