Can We Still Eat Bread If We Have Diabetes?

Yes, we can. It is all about portion control, choosing whole-grain bread, and balancing the rest of our meal. Carbs in bread can fit into our daily allowance if we monitor our intake and consider the fiber content ( EatingWell ).

How Many Carbs Should Each Sandwich Contain?

Two slices of bread can range from 24 to 30 grams of carbs, depending on the bread’s thickness and ingredients. Pair those slices with protein and healthy fats to help manage blood sugar, or consider using one slice for an open-faced version.

Are There Other Lunch Ideas Besides Sandwiches?

Absolutely. We love exploring keto lunch recipes when trying to keep our carb count extremely low. You can also browse our other diabetic lunch recipes for more inspiration and variety.
