VERY INTERESTING but it's a sugar alcohol, like Sorbitol, Xylitol, Maltitol, Lactitol and all those other - - -OL(s) so: :( the Calorie Count Per Serving divided by 4 (or use the Tools:Hidden Carb Calculator) will give the true carb count (CANNOT just deduct like with fiber grams); the carb count may be low but it's NOT zero, 1/2 Cup used in baking would equal 24 Teaspoons or 19.2 calories or 4.8 grams total net carbs! ** edited and corrected Nov 13th 23:00H PDT ** :( the gastrointestinal side-effects (read: possible cramps, diarrhea) may surprise those sensititive to sugar alcohols, and sugar alcohols will halt ketosis for some folks. Use with caution and if it doesn't affect you in any way :) lucky you! In other words, check out Doreen's excellent summary of sweeteners, including all sugar alcohols, even this Erythritol. See the quick link over on the right "The Truth About low carb sweeteners info". Hope this helps! |
