confused about net carbs
« on: September 28, 2010, 10:01:13 PM »
Hi everyone!!

I just bought ALL of Dougs books after seeing my gf have success with the program! My question is ....

I know Im reading labels for the TOTAL CARBS ... but net carbs. I know I read it somewhere but it didnt stick

reason I ask is  ... In the product guide Im looking at purchasing some products online

In particular the Low Carb items from Samis Bakery

I see the Lavash Slim Trim has total carbs of 11g but net zero carbs??

Can someone explain this further?

http://www.samisbakery.com/products/low%2Dcarb/

So am I limited in eating these products? Im a bread junkie lol and I cant picture my life without it but I will if I have to!!! Im dedicated to this! Not only bc I have numerous health issues but my mom has diabetes and I want to show her that if I can do it so can she! I also dont want to get diabetes down the road.

Take total carb count subtraxt dietary fiber. Sugar alcohols if there are any and that gives you the net carb total.
