How this is calculated
total carbohydrate - fiber. Each published value is multiplied by your portion divided by the reference amount. No extra fiber, sugar alcohol or allulose deductions are applied here.
Grams and milliliters are not interchangeable. Household measures require a food-specific conversion; check your scale or product label.

WHY IT'S NOT KETO-FRIENDLY
- The reference contains 82.2g net carbs per 100 g.
- Use the matching preparation and weigh or measure the amount going into your portion.
- Adding fat, protein or a different sweetener does not subtract the carbohydrate already present.
HOW TO USE IT ON KETO
- Measure honey added to drinks, dressings or recipes and include it in the total.
- Use the exact label for honey-flavored syrups; they may have a different sweetener and fiber formulation.
- A dry sweetener and liquid honey need not behave the same in a recipe. Use a tested substitution rather than an assumed one-for-one swap.
PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
CALCULATE A DRESSING
Weigh the honey, oil, vinegar and seasonings, then divide the complete recipe by its actual yield.
TRACK A DRINK ADDITION
Measure honey added to tea or another drink; the liquid does not cancel its carbohydrate.
HONEY ON KETO: FAQ
How many net carbs are in a tablespoon of honey?
The USDA reference tablespoon weighs 21 g and calculates to 17.3 g net carbs after display rounding. Choose Tablespoon in the calculator or weigh your actual portion.
Does raw or local honey have fewer carbs?
That label alone does not establish fewer carbohydrates. Use the exact product’s nutrition; this generic reference is not a measurement of every honey variety.
Can I replace honey one-for-one with allulose or another sweetener?
No universal substitution is established here. Water content, sweetness, bulk and formulation differ; use a tested recipe and calculate all ingredients.
Does one teaspoon automatically break ketosis?
This page cannot predict that response. Account for the actual amount and the rest of your intake rather than relying on a universal threshold claim.
