Default psyllium husks question... again - please?

Yes, I know, we've had hundreds of these posts I'm sure... but I use them coz they have less carbs than flaxseed meal, SO my question is, which do I take as the most accurate carb count?


Nutritional Panel 1
---------------------
per 100g
Carbohydrate
- Total 3.3g
- Sugars 0g
No fibre mentioned

Nutritional Panel 2
---------------------
per 100g
Dietary Fibre 80
Carboyhydrates 80
- Total 80
- Sugar 2.3
Net carb? = Total Carbs minus Dietary Fibre = 0g

Fitday
------
per 1 cup husks
Total Carbs 53.33g
- dietary fibre 47.52g
Net carb? = Total Carbs minus Dietary Fibre = 5.81g


Until now I've always taken husks as pure fibre therefore didn't its count carbs. But as I'm taking 1/4 cup a day I decided to enter into Fitday and surprised to find it contained carbs.

So do I go by Fitday?
