[QUOTE="SWUSA_, post: 1322058, member: 337910"] Carbs are carbohydrates.Carbohydrates are the component in some foods that drive the blood sugar up the most. Growing children need them everyday but carbohydrates are also the thing that will bring low blood sugar up. You probably already have a favorite snack to treat lows. Good job for helping your son deal with his diabetes and lead a normal life-it definitely can be done. I am 57 years old now but used to get excused from Physical education classes because they caused lows for me-we know to test before exercise now and have a small snack with carbohydrates beforehand but it wasn't so well understood then. Good job again and know that it gets easier as you get used to it and learn more. [/QUOTE]
