The Maltitol Question
The more I read about Maltitol the more confused I become about it.
The question is: If I subtract Maltitol grams from carb grams is the result net effective carbs? |
great question.....
great question...I've been wondering the same thing...

Yes, it is. Ie 40 grams carbs, 38 of which are malitol gives 2 grams of effective carbs. This only works if you live in the USA.
Of course the malitol is also effective - effective at making you run to the loo that is! |

"This only works if you live in the USA." Huh? |

Not 2 grams of effective carbs, you probably meant "net carbs"? Effective carb count (ECC) is carbs minus fiber. Net carbs, is an atkins nutritionals formula, dervied by subtracting a few things, including fiber and sugar alcohol. Wa'il |
