Net Carbs Calculator

Formula

To calculate the Net Carbs:

\[ \text{Net Carbs} = TC - F - SA \]

Where:

\(TC\) is the Total Carbs in grams
\(F\) is the Total Fiber in grams
\(SA\) is the Total Sugar Alcohols in grams

What are Net Carbs?

Net carbs are the total amount of digestible carbohydrates in a food item. It is calculated by subtracting the grams of fiber and grams of sugar alcohols from the total grams of carbs. This value is often used by people following low-carb diets to monitor their carbohydrate intake.

Example Calculation 1

Let's assume the following values:

Total Carbs (\(TC\)) = 30 grams
Total Fiber (\(F\)) = 10 grams
Total Sugar Alcohols (\(SA\)) = 5 grams

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Net Carbs} = 30 - 10 - 5 = 15 \text{ grams} \]

The Net Carbs are 15 grams.

Example Calculation 2

Let's assume the following values:

Total Carbs (\(TC\)) = 50 grams
Total Fiber (\(F\)) = 15 grams
Total Sugar Alcohols (\(SA\)) = 10 grams

Using the formula:

\[ \text{Net Carbs} = 50 - 15 - 10 = 25 \text{ grams} \]

The Net Carbs are 25 grams.
