Question on Fibre.
Is fibre added into the total carb count.
Say something has 7 grams fibre and 3 grams sugar.
Is the total carb count 10 or 3. Do they only count the product as having 12 calories since the fibre cannot be digested? or do they go ahead and say its 40 calories. Since fibre always seems to be listed under carbs indented on most food panels. It makes it seem as though it is counted into the total carb count.
Furthering this many keto diets suggest that you can subtract the the fibre from the carb count of food items you eat. If this were the case then it would mean it is included into the total carb count and also counted in as 4 calories a gram which doesn't really make sense since it cannot be diggested and therefore shoudn't be counted for caloric value.
I would be able to discover what how they include it based on nutritional panels but, those panels have a fair amount of inaccuracy to begin with and often don't add up correctly.
