Determining the total amount of carbs that are in your foods is paramount. Newly diagnosed individuals with Type II diabetes often think that actual sugar is the only ingrediant that can raise their blood sugars, however this is not true. Foods that are high in starchs/carbs like white breads, pretzels and pasta can and will raise your blood sugars as well…it’s not just candy! You see, carbs get converted by your metabolism to sugar.

Remember the lower the carbs the better your sugar levels will be.
