Hi Everybody, Here are some lists of foods we commonly eat along with a net carb count for each. It’s obviously not a complete list, so here are some reminders for when you’re calculating net carbs for any other foods. - Calculate net carbs by subtracting the number of fiber grams from the number of carb grams for each serving size. - Pay very close attention to labels. There can be a huge difference in net carbs per brand on particular items. For example…Thai Kitchen coconut milk has only 5 net carbs per can, while a store brand I found had 15 per can. Another example is in canned chopped tomatoes. The Muir Glenn brand has 5 net carbs for a one fourth cup serving while the Trader Joes brand has only 4 net carbs for a one half cup serving. It really pays to read labels. Ok…here are the lists: Vegetables: Asparagus – half cup = 1 net carb Avocado – half cup = 2 net carbs Broccoli – half cup chopped = 1.82 Brussel Sprouts – half cup = 2.24 net carbs Celery – one medium strip = .02 net carbs Cucumbers – half cup = 2 net carbs Green Beans – half cup = 2.02 net carbs Green bell pepper – half cup = 2.5 net carbs Green Onion – one medium (including the green part) - .07 net carbs Onion – one medium = 8.2 net carbs Orange bell pepper – half cup = 5 net carbs Radishes – half cup = 1.07 net carbs Red bell pepper – half cup = 2.75 net carbs Tomatoes – one small = 2.4 net carbs (it also contains 2.4 grams of sugar, so you might not want to eat several at one sitting) Yellow bell pepper – half cup = 5.2 net carbs Yellow Squash – half cup = 2.4 net carbs Nuts: Almonds – half cup = 4.26 net carbs Cashews – one ounce = 7.66 Chia seeds – these zero out because the carbs and fibers are equal Flax seeds – one tablespoon = 1 net carb Macadamia Nuts – half cup = 3.46 net carbs Pecans – half cup of halves = 2.28 net carbs Pumpkin Seeds – one third cup = 7 net carbs Walnuts – half cup of pieces = 4.22 net carbs Fruits: Remember...only the following fruits are eaten in moderation after one is further along in the recovery process. Please be very aware of the sugar counts as well as the net carb counts in the following list. I added the Granny Smith apple only as a reference point because it's been mentioned before as a possibility. Once you see the totals on it, you'll probably not want to make it a choice. I included blueberries as well, but they're really kind of high (relatively speaking) in both net carbs and sugar...so use your best judgement) Blackberries - half cup = 3.12 net carbs (3.51 grams of sugar) Blueberries – half cup = 8.7 net carbs (7.22 grams of sugar) Cranberries – half cup = 4.6 net carbs (2.35 grams of sugar) Raspberries – half cup = 3.34 net carbs (2.72 grams of sugar) Strawberries – half cup = 4.3 net carbs (3.45 grams of sugar) I’m putting the following one separate so you can see that it’s really not all that good of a choice even though it’s been mentioned before as a possibility once you can start eating fruit: Granny Smith Apple – one medium = 11.2 net carbs (9.6 grams of sugar) Condiments: Capers – one tablespoon – 1 net carb Dill pickles – two thirds of one medium dill pickle (one ounce) = 1 net carb Hummus – one tablespoon = 2.42 net carbs Nutritional Yeast – one tablespoon = 1 net carb Siracha – one TEASPOON = 1 net carb Tahini – one tablespoon = 1.5 net carbs Wasabi – one TEASPOON = 1 net carb Hope this is helpful. Love, Karen | |||

Hi Everybody, I'm just submitting this post to bring this thread back up to the top. Even though I'm the one who wrote it, I don't always remember the net carb counts. This time I'm taking pix of sections of this post with my phone and then texting the pix to myself so I'll have these counts handy. Just bringing it back to the top if anyone else finds it handy to do the same. Love, Karen | |||
