well i just recently learned that when you see Carbs in the nutritional value label, it has the breakdown of the carbs in it. For example
Total Carbs 20g
Dietary Fiber 9g
Sugar 4g
Sugar Alchohol 3g
from what that tells me, out of the TOTAL CARB COUNT, only 8 carbs im actually absorbing, since the 9g of Fiber isnt considered towards your actual daily carb count and the 3g of Sug. Alcho. doesnt even get absorbed into the body, you'll just end up pissing it or crapping it out.
AND NOW out of those 8g of real carbs, 4g of it is in the form of simple carbs (4g of sugar) so THAT part will get digested pretty quickly while the other 4g left are actual complex carbs and will be digested slowly....
haha, ok, now that we got THAT part out of the way, lets move on to Total Fat. For Example:
Total Fat 18g
Saturated Fat 4g
Trans Fat 0g
Polyunsaturated Fat 6g
Monounsaturated Fat 8g
so now, whats the story on this? I know that the 4g of Sat. Fat is pretty bad, try and keep that below 2g if you can.... but now what about the poly and mono fats?
6g?
8g?
what do i count those? do i count them as part of my total fat intake for the day? or do you not count those? if my daily macros should be
285g Protein
180g Carbs
39g Fat
will i add the 4+6+8= 18g towards my 39g limit? or am i adding ONLY the 2g of Sat. Fat and the poly and mono fat does not count? you know like the Dietary Fiber and Sugar Alcho. in the above example that doesnt count to my total daily carb intake, does this rule apply to the fats?
im sorry for the lengthy thread, but i like to be very detailed in the questions im asking so we not get confused when trying to answer them.
Thanks to everyone in advance for all there input !! i love you all !!!
