[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1000607, member: 30007"] I'll also tag [USER=42874]@robert72[/USER] here as someone who eats impressively low carb and has an amazingly flat lined bg level. I tend to eat sub-80g a day simply because it is much easier to maintain a controlled blood glucose level with lower carb. In addition, and it's something worth bearing in mind, carbs drive up the need for insulin as a t1 and in spite of the just being able to eat them, increased insulin levels are a mechanism for weight gain, which you may or may not want [USER=201786]@Abbiec12[/USER]. Ultimately the choose is yours, but the Eatwell plate and a higher carb diet don't logically fit with the issues that type 1 diabetics have, in spite of the message that DAFNE sends. [/QUOTE]
