One serving brings some glycemic load.
Why this score

Estimates for a typical serving eaten with a meal. Real foods vary by brand and recipe.
Not medical advice. This score is for marmite on its own. What you eat with it changes the result: protein and fat slow the sugar spike, and breakouts usually show up 3 to 7 days after a meal, which is why SpotBite tracks your meals over time rather than judging one food. Diet is one factor among many (hormones, genetics, skincare, stress, sleep).
