Im doing keto. 3 days in and not faltered yet.

(did it about 10 years ago and lost 3 stone, which has crept back due to a serious pasty addiction after we moved to Devon 😂)

Anyway, i want to give my water a bit of taste and ive got the plj cordial but im struggling to work out the calculations of the nutrition label.

If i add 20ml to 500ml of water, what will that be.

The label shows the carbs per 100ml made up as 1:4. So that’s 20ml cordial to 80ml water.
If you are having 20ml in 500ml of water it will have the same amount of carbs as per the label. It’ll just be much weaker tasting.
Hope that helps. I hate misleading labels.

Ah thank you. So i suppose its not too bad for me then. I don't like artificial sweeteners so this is hopefully my saviour.
