Hey everyone. So i started induction again and have lost 5lbs in around 5 days so pretty happy. I bought some bare naked noodles the other day which have only 0.1g carbs er 100g and 3.4g of dietery fibre. 8 calories per 100g too so not bad.
The ingredients are water, konjac flour, food grade calcium hydtoxide, soybeanfibre and oatmeal flour. Im assuming the outmeal flour is next to nothing as carbs are only 0.1/100g
I realise being in in induction u shouldnt have oatmeal flour but when its so little does it really make that much of a difference?
Dont wana do anything to jeorpadise the weightloss!
Not crazy about the oat flour ingredient, but you can get "Shiritaki" noodles without oat flour. They come in tofu shiritaki too, and I think they're a little better. Anyway, konjac flour is like 100% fiber. Anyway, you are right there is probably very very little oat flour in them.
Hi Nancy. Thanks for the reply! Im not a big fan of shirataki noodles. Do u think it really would make much of a difference when theres so little oat flour? X

Why not use real food instead of a frankenfood? If Atkins doesn't list "miracle noodles" or "zero carb bread" or any other junk "food", then it would be wise to avoid it if you wish to see success/maximize your success.
Why not use spaghetti squash or julienned zucchini/yellow necks or riced cauliflower or any other real, whole, clearly listed as acceptable vegetable instead of something that is only in the US thanks to someone wishing to monetarily capitalize on the "low carb fad"?
These are just a variation of shirataki noodles, by the way. The oat flour is probably for color and texture in the same way that tofu is sometimes used. I have a few packs in my fridge but I'm actually not a big fan of them - they always seem off to me, no matter how I prepare them. I haven't tried this brand, but I've tried several and frankly they're all about the same.
