Had a question about some keto food

was browsing around www.ketofoods.com and came across some "keto bars". Here is a link to a sample flavor of the bar http://www.ketofoods.com/ezStore123...p?productID=332

This is what the description says:

Delicious, Crunchy Keto Bars
Perfect for your Low Carb Lifestyle!
No sugar, no aspartame, no saccharin!
2g* of effective carbs and 24g of protein per bar. 12 bars per box.

Keto Strawberry Crunch bars are full of sweet strawberry pieces to give them a delicious, fruity, crunchy taste and texture.

Keto Bars stay soft and scrumptious with no aftertaste! With 2-4 grams* of effective carbs, delicious Keto Bars contain 24 grams of energizing protein, plus healthy blood sugar nutrients glutamine, taurine and whey peptides to quickly knock out carb and sweet cravings. Plus, each Keto Bar contains 250mg of important anti-fat nutrient CLA (conjugated linoleic acid). Yes, low carb dreams do come true!

Allergy Information: Contains eggs, soy and milk. Manufactured in a plant that uses peanuts and wheat.


*Effective Carbohydrate Count is determined by subtracting those carbohy-drates that have a negligible effect on blood sugar levels from total carbohydrate. Examples include fiber and glycerine.

These statements have not been evaluated by the Food and Drug Administration. This product is not intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease.




when i go look at the nutritional facts it says it has 16g of total carbs. Why do they say it only has 2-3g of "effective carbs"? Will that throw me out of Ketosis? I'm a little confused

Thanx for the help~

The sugars in the bar are the "effective carbs", and the remaining carbs - sugar alcohols - elicit no effect on blood sugar, so they're not counted. They will however reglycogenate the liver, knocking you out of ketosis. Packaging laws allow for this kind of discrepency. :rolleyes:

Thanx for clearing that up. It knew it was too good to be true:(
