Is resistant wheat starch keto?

What it is

Many low-carb tortillas and breads get their tiny net-carb numbers from a wheat starch that has been modified so that most of it resists digestion. On the label it counts as fiber.

Some people find these products affect them more than the label suggests. Treat them as an occasional convenience rather than a daily staple, and if you test your blood sugar, check your own response. They also contain gluten.

How to count it

Evidence and products vary. Count part of it until you know how it affects you.

Digested into glucose. Gluten-free and paleo flours included.
