A member asked:
Can you let me know how many grams of sugar is safe for a type 2 diabetic?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
None, really, but-: Keep all carb intake, specifically starch and sugar under 50-60g/day. This does not include non-digestible fiber (both soluble and insoluble), which are counted with total carbs on labels, but also listed separately!
