"Digestible carbs" is the same thing as Net carbs---both terms are used in the book. We only count "net carbs" on Atkins. So if you are using 1/2 avocado, then you count 2.4 net carbs.

sweeeeeeeeeet! I really need to seriously get through the entire book! My other question is - for example - when I see nutritional facts for something such as Dreamfields pasta - the site (Dreamfields Pasta, Premium pasta made healthy) says, Carbohydrate Facts Total Carbs: 41 g carbs Fiber: 5 g carbs Protected Carbs: 31 g carbs 41 g -5 g -31 g Digestible Carbs*: 5 g Count 5 grams of carbohydrates per each 56 g serving when controlling carbohydrate intake and blood sugar levels to promote good health and weight control. Dreamfields offers significant health benefits, and has been clinically tested to establish digestible carbohydrate levels. What does "protected carbs" mean? Is that pasta seriously only 5 grams of carbs that we'd have to count?
