What are Net Carbs?

The Net Carb (sometimes called digestible carb or effective carb) measure is used by low-carbers to identify the grams of carbohydrate per serving in a product that has a significant effect on your blood sugar. The language is a bit of a problem in the UK, some things labelled by the government as “Carbohydrate” actually don t act like normal carbohydrates in your body in that they don t have much, if any, effect on your blood sugar. Things like fibre and many sugar-free sweeteners fall into this category. So low-carbers can subtract these from the total carb count and come up with the Net Carb figure.
