Default Does this tea have carbs?

I was exposed to a carcinogen and decided to try a detox tea for what its worth. The label says 0 calories, so I would think no carbs.

Ingredients are:

Schisandra fruit, dry aqueous extract
Schisandra fruit
Lycium fruit, dry aqueous extract
licorice root
star anise fruit

I'm supposed to drink it for 16 days so I don't want to injest a million extra carbs that long.

Hoping someone will see this and know the answer or make an educated guess or be able to tell me where I can find the answer.

thanks, Nancy

Hi Nancy,

1 gram of carbs has 4 calories, so if the tea has 0 cals, it must also have 0 carbs.

Cheers.
