By definition, the smoothing factor 0 ≤ α ≤ 1 {\displaystyle \scriptstyle 0\;\leq \;\alpha \;\leq \;1} . The expression for α {\displaystyle \scriptstyle \alpha } yields the equivalent time constant R C {\displaystyle \scriptstyle RC} in terms of the sampling period Δ T {\displaystyle \scriptstyle \Delta _{T}} and smoothing factor α {\displaystyle \scriptstyle \alpha } :

Some critics imply or explicitly argue that vegetables and fruits are inherently all heavily concentrated sources of carbohydrates (so much so that some sources treat the words 'vegetable' and 'carbohydrate' as synonymous). [59] While some fruits may contain relatively high concentrations of sugar, most are largely water and not particularly calorie-dense. Thus, in absolute terms, even sweet fruits and berries do not represent a significant source of carbohydrates in their natural form, and also typically contain a good deal of fiber which attenuates the absorption of sugar in the gut. [60] Lastly, most of the sugar in fruit is fructose, which has a reported negligible effect on insulin levels in obese subjects. [61]
