Are Raspberries Low Carb?
Yes, they totally are! One ounce of raspberries contains only 1.5 grams of net carbs. They are also low in calories, so they are perfect for snacking on.
Besides being low in net carbs, they are also an excellent source of fiber. So, they not only help you stay full, they are good for your digestion as well.
Raspberries are also high in antioxidants, which may help reduce signs of aging and reduce your risk of cancer.
