Other Carbs?

  • I'm doing WW on my own so I'm not clear on some things. I noticed on some food labels it lists "carbs" and below that it lists "other carbs". Do I add those too?
  • It is my understanding you just take the total carbs

    Ok, thank you.
  • The "other carbs" are just to account for the carbs that are neither fiber nor sugar (such as starch and sugar alcohols). The "total carb" count is the tally of all carb types put together. The information below total carbs is just telling you what kind of carbs are in the food.

    Good to know. Thanks!
