Hi everyone,
Since joining this forum, I've noticed a lot of Type 1's have mentioned a low carb diet helps them to control their blood sugars. I'm doing fine at the moment but have had problems with high blood sugars in the past and not one consultant/nurse has ever mentioned it to me, I was just wondering if it had helped other people, and what their idea of 'low carb' meals was and if the benefits were as great as some people say? I exercise regularly and I don't really want to lose weight so it's not about that at all, I'm just curious because although my levels are ok now, there's always room for improvement.
