Default Net Carbs in the UK

Hi

Just started the Atkins diet, almost done a week, but I need some help please.

I really need help on net carbs can someone please clarify if:

1. On any product do you minus the fibre from the total carb figure?
2. Here in the UK we have labels that state “carbs of which sugars”
For example
Basmati Tilda Rice
Carbohydrates per 100g 77g
(of which sugars 0.7)

Do I look at the “of which sugars” figure or do i look at the total figure?
I have at the moment taken the highest figure to be on the safe side.


THANKS
