Just FYI, these bars are bunk. I'm all about trying things if they are free, and they did send me two - a peanut butter one and a vanilla almond one.
I can tell you as a human carb counting machine, that there is WAY more than 5 net carbs in these bars.
Generally as a diabetic, you count half the fiber (if the fiber is high) and add that to the net carbs for insulin bolus (dosing). So I figured 12g bolus = 1.2 units for me. I EVEN gave the bar the benefit of the doubt that it was low-glycemic (and because of the high fat content), so I dosed the 1.2 units over 1 hour (insulin pump). At the 2 hour mark, I tested and I was way high. I had to do a correction bolus (dose) of 2.5 units to get me back in range. That means the bars contain approx 35 grams of carbs that will hit your blood stream. The vanilla almond bar was almost identical to the peanut one in results.
I challenge that company that their bars have WAY more carbs in them then they claim.
Also, I did NOT get the typical gas/bloating I would get from eating something so high in "supposed" fiber.
I think I might buy some better protein bars next time I order me some HCGenerate.
