Thanks for fixing. Very interesting. I didn’t hear anything about fighting hypo-related weight gain. I was diagnosed with (non-Hashimoto) hypo about 9 months ago, and am on medication that has helped tremendously with energy levels etc. But the 10 pounds I gained almost overnight won’t budge – I already do Selenium, were any of the other supplements you mentioned relevant? I am not asking for personal advice, just your “average experience” with clients and/or your own experience.

Hi Joanna, thank you so much for commenting! It’s an issue with the audio software. I’m so glad you mentioned this or I wouldn’t have known! For some reason, it sounded fine pre-uploading, but not when it was online. Fixing it now!

Hi, I tried to listen to your podcast, but after the Intro, and where you say “without further ado, here we go…” the audio stopped. Is this a problem with your upload or my computer? I tried refreshing a couple of times.

Is there a difference in carb for raw and frozen/ cooked spinach?

Hey, Sam! It seems like they might have updated this since launching the flavor. The original packaging (which is what is still listed on their website) states that there are just 5g of net carbs per serving for this flavor. Other original flavors also have 4-5g.

I’m going to email the company to see what’s up, because it’s a pretty big discrepancy.

The vanilla bean has 16 carbs per 1/2 cup (4 servings per carton). Minus the 3 carbs for fiber and 5 for sugar alcohol and I get 8 carbs per 1/2 cup. That’s 32 carbs for the carton. What am I missing?

Thanks for the info, Nicole! Sadly, it seems like a lot of their flavors now have regular sugar (I haven’t had mint chip in ages, but I don’t recall it actually having real sugar, I could be wrong, though!).

I’m updating this article to reflect that, as we all tend to get excited about finding a product line that works on keto, and then not realizing when some of the options are actually kind of sugary. I definitely foud out the hard way with this stuff, too!

On the plus side, there are still tons of flavors that are lowcarb-friendly! :)

I just had the mint chocolate chip which is amazing, however it’s 5g sugar and the ingredients list regular sugar.

Hi Kimiko – this is a great question! So, Halo Top has recently released a bunch of new flavors where they do seem to add in some actual sugar, unfortunatly. Which flavor did you try? I want to try and accurately update this article!

On labels, stevia won’t be reflected in the grams of carbohydrates at all, and sugar alcohols (like erythritol) will be in the total carbs, but listed separately from sugar. I don’t blame you for being confused, labels are so confusing!

I just tried it yesterday and I love it!! Only thing that worries me is in the ingredients it says “organic cane sugar” & the label states 6 grams of sugar. Is the 6 grams coming from the cane sugar or are they speaking of the erythritol & stevia? These damn labels always confuse me.
