    Mmmm most of the packs ive looked at have fibre content, maybe if it doesnt have it on the package then maybe there isnt fibre in that product, i dont know. Anyway, better to eat complex carbs over simple for the reasons above BUT its the overall carb intake that counts when counting macros.

    Basic Carb description below

    You have simple and complex carbs, both are just units of sugar, simple carbs have single and double sugar units, complex have multiple units. Both types are digested by the body, obviously simple are digested quicker and complex digested over a longer period.

    Fiber is a complex carb not digested by the body and goes through your digestive tract helping your insides feel good. you have two types of fibre soluble and insoluble.

    that is the basics.
