Question Total Fibre vs Soluble Fibre

Hi there,

I wonder if anyone can help me with this question please !

In the UK our carb count includes fibre. However, in order to put information into Fitday, I want to include the fibre content of what I eat. I have a UK book which gives me carb (g) and then two columns, 'total fibre (g)' and 'soluble fibre (g)'. What is the difference and which one should I be adding to the carbs (g) to make in the equivalent of the US carb count for Fitday?

I hope this is clear. I've been adding 'total fibre' to carbs, so if it's the other one, then my daily fibre count is going to be lower!!!

Thanks in advance
Banana
