Nutritionally you want to make sure they have a well rounded diet. It's not that they can't learn to snack or eat low carb foods, but kids already feel different when they are a type 1 and not being able to enjoy the foods along with classmates and friends can be an added burden. It's usually best from other type 1 kids to try to let them be as normal as possible. They already feel different and that's rougher on a kid. It's usually hard enough to explain the restrictions of I have to give you insulin for everything you eat, so I need to know what you ate. Or have them sneak the cookie and not tell you.</p></blockquote><p></p>
