What did you eat yesterday?

[Kaylz]

Can I just ask when looking at the carb content on food/packet what is the maximum the carb content you should have in say 100g or packet as I have no idea
Thanks Sam

As I mentioned last night everyone is different there is no right or wrong answer to this question I'm afraid x

I can answer this only on a personal level. You & everyone else will be different. I aim to have a max of 20g carb per meal, totalling 60g a day. There are so many variables to take into consideration too, such as fat or fibre content which will slow the carbs down causing less of a BG increase. Take porridge for instance. I Have to add a drop of cream to stop it spiking me. Without the cream my BG soars up. Testing before & 2 hours after a meal is really the only way you will know.🙂
