How is ZSweet^® zero calories if it shows carbs on the label?

ZSweet® granulated contains less than 4 zero net carbohydrates per serving & ZSweet® supersweet packets contain less than 1 zero net carbohydrates per serving. Zero net carbohydrates are also known as unavailable carbs, which means, essentially, that they don't count.  Zero net carbohydrates are not converted into glucose by the body & therefore do not require you to do a carb / calorie conversion. For this reason, ZSweet® is the perfect natural sweetener for individuals on low or no carbohydrate diets.

Because ZSweet® contains erythritol, considered a 'sugar alcohol', it is required by the FDA to display 1 carb per gram on its label.
