Scorbett (or anyone who can answer) -
Can you confirm.......
9 grams carbs or
10 grams carbs makes an item RESTRICTED?
So, you take the total carbs minus the fiber and this equals the number of grams of carbs that we use to determine restricted/unrestricted item.
Also, how do you evaluate the fat content to determine if an item is restricted or unrestricted for IP alternative?
Bottom line if either the CARBS or the FAT makes an item restricted, then it is restricted, correct?
Thanks ahead for the help and clarification,
