All food have carb

[supadhye]

For last two months, after I took medication for some allergy, my sugar levels are not coming down properly even after taking medicines and consulting doc and are still high, though I am doing all efforts. Doc suggested Insulin plus medicines as well. As I am vegetarian all foods are having carb. so how to proceed with low carb. Definately I donot want to continue with insulin longer.

Go grainfree. Learn lchf concept. Carbs are not at all essential. You can live on prots and good fats. You can take 75% fats as your caloric requirement.
