Net carbs/sugar alcohols

Kristi

Under settings I selected 'net carbs'. If I then select 'include sugar alcohols in net carbs' does that mean just what it says and to not subtract them or does it mean 'account' for them in which case they would be deducted? Thank you?

@Kristi this means that The sugar alcohol value will be added to the Net Carb Value When the box is checked. The net carb value will be lower if you are consuming foods containing sugar alcohols and do not have the box checked.

Hello @Kristi

Cronometer defaults to include sugar alcohols in the Net Carbs calculation (box is checked). To subtract sugar alcohols un-check the box in front of "Include sugar alcohols in net carbs".

Best,
