How Low Is Low Carb?

If you are looking for a universal definition there really isn't one
Generally 150 or less is considered low carb
The DiRECT Study which came up with the formula for Diabetes Remission pegged low carb at 26% of total calories or 130 (26%) in a 2000 calorie a day diet
In reality, a diet capable of maintaining remission may be a little more or a lot less than 130 net carbs a day (I personally average about 100-110/day on a week over week basis which has, at least up until now, kept my A1C "sub-6")
KETO the epitome of Low Carb is considered less than 50, with the 2 more known Atkin's diets containing either 20 or 40 carbs/day but in effective terms, it would be the maximum number of carbs the (dieter) could consume and remain in Ketosis

A low-carb diet typically involves reducing carbohydrate intake to help manage blood sugar levels. While the exact definition can vary, many people with diabetes aim for around 100 net carbs per day. This can help improve blood sugar control and overall health. Always consult with your healthcare provider to determine the Show Full Answer
