Abstract: Low carbohydrate diet (LCD), as an adjunctive therapy of type 1 diabetes (T1DM), has attracted much attention in recent years, but its exact efficacy and safety have not yet been determined. Limited literature has reported that LCD plays an important role in controlling blood sugar and its complications in T1DM patients, regulating intestinal microbiota, and autoimmunity. This article elaborates on the research progress of T1DM medical nutritional therapy related to LCD mode in recent years, including its control of blood sugar, adverse reactions, and regulation of intestinal microbiota.
