Cyborg............do you subtract even if there's only 1g of fiber? |
Why the threshold? Fiber is still fiber and interacts with your body the same way regardless of how much or how little there is, no? (If there is a threshold, doing it as a percentage seems more rational to me than a fixed amount - I would think it's more sensible to subtract the fiber in something with 5g carb/4g fiber than something with 100g carb/10g fiber. This would also avoid any games that may be played with serving sizes.)
And I'm with Cyborg, at least for now. I always subtract fiber, but I'm only a month into this, so I may find that not subtracting it or only subtracting a fraction of it works better for me.
