I bought this product the other day. I was fascinated by the low calories! however they are packed full of carbs so I don't really know how good they are for weight loss?

Basically I am always chasing products that can fill me up but are low in calories, however I don't consume a monster amount of carbs through out the day!

If you have used it before, have any info on it, recipe ideas... please drop me a line! Thanks xx

    oops, sorry the picture is so big.

    Nutrional Info is per 100gms -

    Carbs 91.3gm
    dietary fibre 91.3gm
    insoluble fibre 88.76gm
    soluble fibre 2.54gm

    My understanding is that the carbs being almost entirely insoluble fibre means they can't be digested, so net carbs would be carbs-fibre or at least carbs-insoluble fibre. Be warned though, your body may make a lot of gas while trying to digest the insoluble fibre!
