Which diet do you mean? I looked and can only see evidence of their recommending 45-60 g of carbohydrates a meal. That's 180 g a day, some 60 g below my personal non-diabetic maintenance level.
- mixedCase 10y ago180g a day is 6-9 times as many grams of carbs allowed in a low-carb diet.
- arjie 10y ago20 g carbohydrate per day is a very drastic diet. That's not something the ADA can recommend to the general public. It's not fair to expect them to do so.
- mixedCase 10y ago20-30g is low-carb, and induces dietary ketosis (read: not ketoacidosis) which is in essence a cure for type 2 diabetes. Everything other than that and it no longer fits that category.
