Nat,
I'm still confused about this formula. It says that the hidden carbs are in sugar alcohols. But how can you determine sugar alcohol content from fat/calorie/protien/carb count? Also, the quote in your reply said: "If the number you get is bigger than the number of carbs declared on the label, the product has hidden carbs, and it's most likely the polyol. Calories do not just disappear into thin air! " I thought calorie count was basically irrelevant as far as Atkins was concerned. The way I understand it, all we have to do is pay attention to carbohydrate count.
