Sue is a 4-year-old girl who was diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes when she was 1. Her parents have learned that spacing out Sue's carbohydrates throughout the day helps to keep her blood sugar levels stable. Each meal (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) provides roughly how many grams carbohydrate per meal? a. 30 grams carbohydrate per meal
b. 50 grams carbohydrate per meal
c. 15 grams carbohydrate per meal
d. 20 grams carbohydrate per meal

The correct answer is option a. "30 grams carbohydrate per meal".

Explanation:

It is very important to control the amount of carbohydrates that a child eats, particularly for a child diagnosed with Type 1 diabetes such as Sue. It is recommended to follow a plan that established an approximate carbohydrate ingest of 30 grams per meal, in order to control weight gain as glycemic control improves. Of course, the amount of grams per meal varies depending of the meal. For instance, a snack can have from 15 to 20 grams of carbohydrates, while a dinner can have from 30 to 45 grams of carbohydrates.
