        It depends on how they 'impact' you

        My way of treating those pesky 'non-counting carbs' is that if the carbs they are not counting (sugar alcohols) affect my body by making me rush to the bathroom then I can ignore them and use the numbers quoted, but if they have no 'bathroom effect' on me then my body could well be processing them and treating them like other carbs and so I should not deduct them from the carb count.
        Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
        Take a look at the thread from the latest Veggie Challenge to see how others manage it!
