When fiber is combined with carbohydrates, it can slow down the digestion and absorption of sugars, leading to a more gradual rise in blood glucose levels. This helps to maintain stable energy levels and can prevent spikes in insulin. Additionally, fiber promotes feelings of fullness, which can aid in appetite control and weight management. Overall, this combination supports better digestive health and metabolic function.

Total carbohydrates- insoluble fiber= net carbs. Your body can't break down insoluble fiber (since it is insoluble!), so it's not counted towards carbs.

High Fiber Diet Foods Cut Net Carbs?
If you are following a diet designed to be low in carbohydrates, looking for foods that are high in fiber are one way to keep your carb count low.

Filling up on high fiber pastas and tortillas for grain options can give you the grains you need while keeping the empty carbs away.
How many carbohydrates should I eat for a 1400 calorie diet?
For 1400 calories, I think about 175 total grams of carbs is correct. I based this on the guidelines suggesting that 50% of calories come from carbs, and there are 4 calories per carb/gram...SO: 1400 divided by 2=700. 700 divided by 4=175. The thing to remember is that "complex" carbs like whole grain, veggies and beans have FIBER, which most "simple" carbs like sugar, white bread, cakes, soda, etc. DON'T have any fiber so they spike blood sugar. I also think that you can deduct the fiber grams from the carb grams because fiber is not digested by the body (that's where you'll see the term "net carbs" on packaging). So if a wholegrain roll has 20 g of carbs and 8 g of fiber, you really only absorb 12 g of carbs. Hope this helps!
