There are no rules, but you do need to find your own tolerance levels (we all have different ones). To do this you need your own meter. Without a meter you are just guessing. Some folk can tolerate over 100g a day, others can only tolerate 20g a day because we are all at different stages of the disease, different medications, different pancreatic function and unique metabolisms. All carbs turn to sugar once inside the system, and that includes the so called healthy ones like wholemeal and certain breakfast cereals. It makes sense therefore to reduce the amount we eat. The worst offenders are bread, rice, potatoes, pasta, flour, cereals and fruit, but there are carbs in so many other foods as well.This website may help  <a href="https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/60-seconds" target="_blank">https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/60-seconds</a></blockquote>
