I would like to know whether you should count the calories from your fiber supplements since they are minimally absorbed if not at all into you bloodstream. I know that soluble fiber would be absorbed more so, but how much of that do you count? I read on the insoluble fiber label for Konosyl that out of 25 calories only 3 are available which is what spurned my query even further.
Help anyone?
Thanx,
Katie
