    When calculating Macros, RE: CARBS

    when I'm calculating my intake of carbs, do I deduct fiber from the total carb grams?

    thanks

    Yep, don't count it. Most fiber are carbs but do not contain glucose so it doesn’t raise blood glucose.

    wait, so I do deduct fiber? what else do I deduct? sugar alcohol? Man, so I STILL have to eat more carbs than I am?

    worry more of your overall calorie intake

    ok good looking out. I have my caloric intake spot on, I just was wondering how to calculate the carbs. SO I'm going to just look at carbs and not sugar alcohol or fiber when counting the carbs, right?
