Abstract:
Low-carbohydrate diet is becoming popular recently. It requires carbohydrate intake lower than 130 g/d(or <26% of total energy intake) while fat and protein intake are not defined. Low-carbohydrate diet contributes to better glycemic control in patients with type 1 diabetes: lowering HbA 1C and glycemic variability, and improving time in range(TIR). Low-carbohydrate diet reduces insulin dosage in type 1 diabetic patients and does not increase the risks of hypoglycemia and diabetic ketoacidosis. This review summarized the research evidence of low-carbohydrate diet to explore the role and safety in disease management.
