Hereâs a table of this info: (note: one gram of protein or carb has 4 calories, one gram of fat has 9 calories.) So this American Diabetes Association recommended meal composition includes 78 grams of carbohydrates, 15 grams of protein, and 14 grams of fat. The entire meal is about 510 calories. The carbohydrate:protein:fat calorie percentage ratio is 61:13:25.
Counting carbohydrates is important because carbohydrates you eat make your blood sugar levels go up. Eating to many carbohydrates can elevate your blood sugar to dangerously high levels. Eating too few carbohydrates can cause low blood sugar, especially if you are on diabetic medications or insulin. good place to start for most is to consume 45 to 60 grams of carbohydrates per meal. While this is often the recommendation, I myself rarely eat over 15 to 30 carbs per meal. I've been a type 1 diabetes since I was three.
