Carbohydrate Counting



What is carbohydrate counting?

  • Carbohydrate counting, or "carb counting," is a meal planning technique for managing your blood glucose levels.
  • The balance between the carbohydrates you eat and insulin determines what your blood glucose level will be after eating.
  • Finding the right amount of carbohydrate depends on many things including how active you are and what, if any, medicines you take.
  • Carbohydrate counting can also help you plan your meals.

  • Ø  Breads, crackers, and cereals
  • Ø  Pasta, rice, and grains
  • Ø  Starchy vegetables, such as potatoes, corn, and peas
