Just make sure that low-carb really is low-carb. Food manufactures are sneaking in glycerine, which is still a carb, but doesn't have to be labeled as such, though I think the FDA/FTC is addressing that issue.

I thought a carb had to be counted no matter what. Atkins breaks out their carb count removing fiber and some other one (I think it begins with an "a") as those don't raise your blood sugar.

I would like to see a Glycemic Index number on foods too. But that seems like it varies based on the individual.
