This study aims to examine whether there were changes between 1995⁻2012 in the dietary glycaemic index (dGI) and glycaemic load (dGL) in Australian children (<16 years) according to three national surveys in 1995 (1995NS), 2007 (2007NS), and 2011⁻2012 (2012NS). Glycaemic index (GI) values of food...
