A balanced and healthy diet is very important in type 1 diabetes mellitus (T1DM) in childhood. In addition to regulating blood glucose with diet, diet should also support optimal growth. Low-carbohydrate diet aims to provide daily energy from fats and was originally used for childhood epilepsy. We present a patient with T1DM who experienced unfavorable effects when on a low-carbohydrate diet.

Keywords: Low-carbohydrate diet, type 1 diabetes mellitus, nutrition therapy, childhood
