I don't trust net carbs... especially in things like the Atkins bars etc... people eat them and then don't lose - I think it's because of the whole 'net carb' thing...

Net carbs are Carbs minus fiber. But what if you are constipated and the fiber stays in your system? This was always something I wondered about...

Anyway, most atkineers go by 20 net carbs on induction...
