I understand that 20 is the maximum during the Induction phase. But is there a minimum?

Some people can't go over 12. Have you read the books?

Even an egg has carbs and a pkt of Splenda has one so with just meat, eggs and some tea w/ cream it would be easy to get 15 carbs in a day.

I believe the book says to get as close to 20g a day as possible. It's the maximum and the minimum.

I have to do closer to 15 carbs a day, somedays I get closer to 20, but I have a screwed up metabolism.
