[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 1174467, member: 41816"] I believe that erythritol is a carb, it is just not absorbed by the digestive tract. So they have to label it as one. The monk sugar, I have never heard of. Maybe search to see what the GI/GL of monk sugar is? Edited in view of Robbity's link below: Erythritol is absorbed, but not used by the body, and is therefore excreted in the urine unused. So counts as 0 cal, but has carbs. [/QUOTE]
