My brother tried explaining it to me, but I’m starting to think he doesn’t understand it either. *My* understanding is that net carbs is based on the digestable and non-digestable carbs in a good. So if it’s 5 grams, but you can’t digest 3, then it’s really only 2 grams of carbs. My brother is saying that as long as he eats fiber, he cns have carbs? Like he can eat pizza because he had a high-fiber vegetable with it. I’m starting to doubt either of us understand net carbs. What’s the deal? What exactly is a carb, and how do net carbs work?

Eating fiber doesn’t “cancel out” other carbs, it just doesn’t count towards your daily total. You can’t eat pizza and then cancel it out with fiber. Source: currently on keto and I would be eating pizza daily then downing fiber supplements if it worked that way.
