How can I activate net carbs ? – Lifesum guide

You are now able to choose between carbs and net carbs in the keto diets available in the app:- Ketogenic Strict- Ketogenic Medium- Ketogenic EasyIn order to choose net carbs, please go to your Settings and then to the Nutrition Settings. There you can choose between the two options and activate the requested one by ticking in the field. You will save your choice by leaving the page clicking on the arrow on top of the page.Depending on what you choose you will either see carbs or net carbs in your diary .Since we do not support sugar alcohol in our app our approach can differ a bit from other net carb calculators. There is no "true and only" way though.In our app we calculate net carbs = total carbs minus fiber.This is the net amount that your body can consume and will affect your blood sugar (such as sugar and starch) – the rest (fiber) goes down in your stomach to be food for the gut bacterias. Therefore if you have e.g. a total sum of carbs with 45 g and the fiber amount of it is 39 you will get 6 gram net carbs (45 gram total carb – 39 gram fiber).Please make sure that you have the latest version of the app installed – only then you will be able to find the net carbs option.
