Confused about effective carbs...

Could someone please explain about the new labeling that is showing up of lots of products about their "effective carbs". Does that mean if a product say 24 g/carbs and 2 g/fiber , but then claims it only has 3 g/effective carbs and that is the number to consider for low carbing that 3 g/carbs is all I count?
Thanks!
Kris
