Guest, we'd love to know what you think about the forum! Take the Diabetes Forum Survey 2025 »

Message: <blockquote data-quote="KennyA" data-source="post: 2670240" data-attributes="member: 517579">Carb count in the UK already has the value for indigestible fibre removed.   The US counts it (usually as fiber), so you need to take the source of your information into account.All digestible carbs - starchy carbs and sugars - are digested to glucose and end up having to be managed (or not) by your insulin system. The "of which sugars" is not at all helpful in my opinion but does prop up current NHS advice to "base all your meals around starchy carbs". Following that advice ensured I became diabetic.</blockquote>
