A member asked:
How much carbs should a person with diabetes have daily. which food must be completely avoided if both fasting and pp are high inspite of medications.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends: In general, the less carb you take , the better off you are with diabetes. But a life totally without carb can be an unpleasant one. As to how much, it would depend on your lifestyle (how much exercise etc) and severity of your condition and thus you need to consult a dietitian re. your diet.
