Flaxseeds on keto

[Sim882]

Are ground flaxseeds acceptable on keto - the nutritiondata.com says they contain 42% Fat, 18% P, 29% Carbs, 27% fibre.

42+18+29+27=116, so I'm guessing that this means only 2% net carbs (i.e., the carbs - fibre) - but then why doesn't nutritiondata.com say 22% of their energy comes from carbs?

Do people count flaxseeds carbs?

(If it is only 2% carbs, they would be awesome on keto given their high fiber content)

yes they are fine with keto. Almost all of the carbs in them is fiber.

 

[holy ghost]

I'm not doing keto - weeks ago I asked whether I count the carbs in flaxseeds, no one answered, so I thought I would rephrase it and see whether people answered. It worked.

By the way, I'm still per perplexed, how can fitday and nutritiondata.com say about 20% of flaxseeds calories come from carbs them. It's annoying me cause I don't know how to include flaxseeds in my macros - they are more nutritious that the oil, but I'd probably prefer to get my carbs from something more feeling, if I have to count the calories from carbs in flaxseeds which the flaxseeds packet, fitday and nutritiondata.com suggest I do.

(BTW, nice to see a TOOL fan on site)
