Weegy: ere are the basics: Controlling diabetes means managing insulin levels. The offender? Blood sugar-spiking carbohydrates. Most Americans eat a moderate- to a high-carb diet anywhere from 40 percent carbs to upwards of 65 percent. [ That s why limiting carbs or choosing the right ones is a strategy most doctors recommend for their patients. Recent research lends some insight to these recommendations. A 2012 review published in Diabetes Care analyzed a range of diets including low-glycemic index (GI) and low-carb diets for the treatment of type 2 diabetes. The low-GI diets recommended foods that digest slowly which, theoretically, should help keep blood-sugar levels steady. The low-carb diets limited carbohydrates from 20 grams per day about the amount in one apple up to 40 percent of calories. The results were mixed. (That s researcher-speak for confusing. ) In six of 10 studies analyzed, patients on a low- or moderately-low-carb diet decreased their blood-sugar levels. When researchers looked at five low-GI studies, only two found that low-GI impacted glucose ]
