Video is a little under 6 minutes, but is very informal. The majority of people take nutrition labels for face value, which often times mean over eating or exceeding their macros.
e.g- A spicy tofu sandwich in the video has 228 calories on the label, but when tested it was actually 548.4.
This is especially applies to fresh cooked foods. Sometimes when I go to a restaurant I’ll look up nutrition value information and just by looking at the food I can tell the calorie/macro breakdown is way off.
This extra caution should be applied to the keto diet. With all these new “keto approved” products, I’m sure companies are taking advantage of being able to label values “within an acceptable range”.
For example, a keto protein chocolate chip cookie might have 10 net carbs on the package, but I’m willing to bet that the values actually exceed that by up to 5-10 more carbs. Companies have the ability to inaccurately report the amount of fiber, sugar alcohols, or sugar, etc.
