Can anyone tell me if there is a setting to calculate net carbs?

    Unless it’s already in the database, you’re just going to have to do the math (:

    No. Other countries already list their carbs as net, so to have a setting would be a nightmare.

    You can switch sugar out for fiber in your tracked nutrients to manually get the numbers, and I believe there is a webscript you can use on your computer.

    No, but there are plenty of net carb entries or the opportunity to create your own if one doesn't exist.

    Thank you. I’m doing the math, but thought if I upgraded it would have an option.

    I've been told that this script works well:
