FAQ
How does The Keto Project calculate net carbs?
Net carbs = total carbohydrate - dietary fiber - sugar alcohols - allulose. The Keto Project deducts 100% of dietary fiber, all sugar alcohols and allulose included in total carbohydrate. Use amounts per labeled serving and deduct each amount only once. We follow applicable FDA rules for serving sizes and all rounding.
