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.
