Under the Nutrition page for a day. Myfitnesspal shows the number of carbs, fiber, and sugar.
Suppose carbs=200 grams
Fiber=50 and Sugar=50
Now since fiber and sugar are also carbs, do the 200 grams of carbs include the 100 grams of carbs from fiber or sugar?
Or the 200 gms of carbs is separate from fiber and sugar?
Thanks

    The carbs it tracks are total carbs (so including sugar and fibre), though some individual entries in the food database have been entered with net carbs, it might say that in the food name.
