Sugar Alcohol - subtracted from carb count?
Hi all, I was talking with a nutritionist from GNC and she told me that the FDA now requires the Sugar Alcohol amounts to be listed under the carb count, and to subtract that amount from the carbs. I bought a coconut protein bar with 18 grams of carbs, 17 of those are sugar alcohol, does that mean this is 1 gram effective carbs, or is sugar alcohol to be avoided? Thanks to all who reply...
