Recipe how to count total carbohydrates?

Step 1: Identify the food you want to analyze.

Step 2: Find the nutrition facts for the food.

The nutrition facts for a food can usually be found on the food label. If the food is not packaged, you can look up the nutrition facts online.

Step 3: Locate the "Total Carbohydrates" line.

The "Total Carbohydrates" line will usually be located on the nutrition facts panel. This line will tell you the total number of carbohydrates in the food, in grams.

Step 4: Subtract the fiber and sugar from the total carbohydrates.

The amount of fiber and sugar in the food will be listed on the nutrition facts panel. To find the net carbs, subtract the amount of fiber and sugar from the total carbohydrates.

Step 5: The number you get is the total carbs.

The net carbs are the number of carbohydrates that your body will actually absorb. This is the number that you should use when tracking your carbohydrate intake.

Here is an example of how to calculate the net carbs for a food:

Food: 1 cup of cooked rice

Total Carbohydrates: 30g

Fiber: 2g

Sugar: 0g

Net Carbs: 30g - 2g - 0g = 28g

In this example, the net carbs for 1 cup of cooked rice are 28g.
