Net impact Carbs?
Hello, I have a question about the carbs in some of these high protein bars. For instance this MET-RX Protein Plus bar (chocolate roasted peanut). This is what a portion of the label on back reads, in it's entirety.
Carbohydrate Information
This Protein Plus bar contains only 4 grams of Net Impact Carbs that should be counted toward your daily carbohydrate intake.
____________________________________________________
NET IMPACT CARBS
4 TOTAL CARBS 29 g
DIETARY FIBER 1 g
NON IMPACT CARBS 24 g
____________________________________________________
NET IMPACT CARBS 4 g
Glycerin, dietary fiber and carbohydrates (other than sugars and starches) in this bar elicit a negligible impact on blood sugar levels. Glycemic response is a very important issue -- Get informed.

So does this mean I only count 4 carbs for this bar? If so, Protein Plus also advertises there low net carb count. I hope this wasn't an irritating one by listing all that, I just thought maybe someone would like to read it. Thanks.
