German term or phrase: anrechnungspflichtige Kohlenhydrate
From the introduction to a cookery book specialising in diabetic dishes.

"Häufig wird deshalb auch von Lebensmitteln genascht, die keine anrechnungspflichtigen Kohlenhydrate liefern wie Käse, Wurst und Schinken."

Not sure the best way to translate "anrechnungspflichtige" in this case. Thanks in advance for your help!

allowable carbohydrates
Explanation:
I presume here that 'anrechnungspflichtig' means the same as 'anrechnungsfähig'.
