    Pure protein Bar - 19 carbs but only 2 count???

    http://www.pureprotein.net/

    I picked up one of these bars the other day at the store ( needed a quick snack ) and I was reading the label and it states this.

    Attention low carb dieters

    Total carbs 19g

    Less fiber, sugar alcohol, and glycerin 17g

    Net carbs = 2g

    For those watching their carbs, count 2 grams. The remaining carbs have a lesser efect on blood sugar.

    Ok please explain to me how we go from 19 crabs to 2 carbs that count??

    Cause a small to none insulin spike. So company's say these are low carb bars, just ignore it and count the 19g of carbs. Also do a search, this has been answered many times.

    Not only that, but what a crappy source of carbs. Pick a bar with rolled oats or something decent as an ingredient.

    Interesting insights, have you heard about a pure protein powder that you can use for your whey protein shake?

    Cause a little to none blood insulin raise. So organization's say these are low carbs cafes, just neglect it and depend the 19g of carbohydrates. Also do a look for, this has been responded to many periods. Cause a little to none blood insulin raise.
