cause top blood sugars. Not enough carbohydrates can lead to low blood sugars or
hypoglycemia.

all carbohydrates are created equal. You also need to pay attention to fat and sugar
content.

right kinds in yours. good carbohydrates will fill you up and not create a sudden spike in
your blood sugars. Bad carbohydrates are usually over-processed, create prime blood
sugars, create obesity and are high in sodium.
