Direct costs to attend the university include tuition & fees and room & board. As an example, the direct costs for a full-time, undergraduate resident student who lives on or off campus are $15,688.
In this case, your dietitian or diabetes educator should give you an idea of how many carbohydrates you should eat at each meal and snack. A general rule of thumb is to limit your carb intake to around 30-60 grams at meals and 15-30 grams at snacks, although this varies greatly.
So, someone with diabetes needs to control how much carbohydrate he or she eats. Sugar is just one type of carbohydrate; foods contain other sources of carbohydrate, too, like starch. If you only account for the sugar in foods, you'll miss out on other sources of carb, and that can affect your blood glucose. In general, most people aim for between 30 and 60 grams of carbohydrate per meal, and 15 to 30 grams of carb per snack. It's a good idea to meet with a dietitian to find out how much carb is best for you.
