Default Net Carbs: Sugars vs Sugar Alchohol
permalink
In calculating net carbs, I have noticed on several product labels that the total carbs will be listed and right under it, it will indicate carbs from fiber and carbs from "sugars" not sugar alcohol. In this context, do the words "sugars" and "sugar alcohol" mean the same?

Thanks for the help
