    Every type 1 diabetic needs to become good at "carb counting" in order to effectively control blood sugars. "Carbs" is the food group for energy, the others being "proteins" - for building muscle, and "fats" - stored energy. Carbs are typically measured in grams and need to be counted to determine individual insulin needs.
