Introduction/Summary.
* Not all carbs are equally available; some do not produce glucose.
* [[Fiber]] is partly digested, producing Short Chain Fatty Acids
* The idea of Net Carbohydrates varies by diet
* Generally, [[Low Carbohydrate Diets]] define net carbohydrates as total carbohydrate less fiber
* Atkins does not include sugar alcohols in net carbs
* Sugar alcohols such as Xylitol are likely to impact ketosis and should probably be considered 50-90% of the impact of a carbohydrate.
==Non-Calorific Artificial Sweeteners==
There is little evidence that artificial sweeteners cause an increase insulin production.
==Sugar Alcohol Sweeteners ==
Sugar alcohols are types of sugars that are not absorbed in the stomach, but are meet one of three fates:
* They are absorbed in the small intestine.
* Pass through the small intestine to be fermented by bacteria like [[Fiber]] to Short Chain Fatty Acids.
* Excreted intact.
* Find research on anti-ketogenic effect of Sorbitol
