Although no food is off limits, the child with diabetes does need to learn the typical diet plan: 40-50% carbohydrates (complex is better than simple), 20-30% fats, and 15-20% protein. The first meal is appropriate. The oatmeal is a carbohydrate, but the nuts give some protein and some fat. The pancakes with sugar-free syrup are alright if the child adds a protein. The cinnamon roll and juice are all simple carbohydrates, and this selection shows the child needs further instruction.
