Yes, low and good carbs are important. Going gluten free can lead to eating the wrong carbs if you do not learn all about it. Nutrition is always most important. I don't eat many carbs.

Potatoes and rice make the blood sugar go up. I eat no rice and VERY little potato. A few fries once a week. I just really need a few fries. Five to eight.

Most grocery stores are full of great gfree foods. But the meat, veggies and fruit are what I eat most.
