I don’t know if it’s just me but I find the recommended daily carb intake of 225-350g of carbs astronomical and quite frankly as a type 1 I find it dangerous.
According to my Freestyle libre I’m having on average 159g of carbs a day. I’m wondering whether I’m eating too little or too much. I would go very low carb like Dr Bernstein but I need fruits and vegetables in my life. I’ve seen on some forums that some diabetics eat crazy amonts of carbs like 300g (equivalent to 30 units of novorapid if using 1:10)
I’m thinking of initially reducing my carb intake to 120g doing 20g breakfast, 40g lunch and 60g dinner then reducing it further depending on how I feel. Do you think this is wise? I know you are not dieticians but it’s nice to hear advice from experienced people (I’m 18 and have only been diagnosed a little over a month ago)
