- Track how many carbohydrates you eat to make sure you're within your recommended range.
- Choose Complex carbohydrates such as whole grains, vegetables, and legumes
- Eat consistent amounts of carbs throughout the day to keep your blood sugar steady.
- Stay hydrated and active to help manage blood sugar.
