  • Total carbs - Digestable carbs?????

    can anyone answer this? In the Dr. atkins New diet revolution carb counter in the back of the book it says for eg. under the nuts and seeds
    2 T of macadamia nuts have 2.3 total carbs and digestible carbs 0.9...Now do we subtract that from the total carbs??????and that will give us carbs that we count on our blogs for each day....?????Would appreciate some clarity...Thanks

    Digestible carbs are net carbs. The rest is fiber.

    No. You will count digestible carbs.

      Are you still in induction? Because if so, you shouldn't be having any nuts at all yet...

        I think that was only an example.
