Some families are reporting restricting carbohydrate-containing foods to help manage their child’s blood glucose levels.
We are hoping to learn from parents and carers about how they implement low-carbohydrate diets and the benefits they find in managing their child’s type 1 diabetes.
Who can participate?
We are looking for parents and carers of children with type 1 diabetes (aged 10 years or younger) who are currently implementing a low-carbohydrate diet or have tried to limit foods or drinks containing carbohydrate within the past 6 months.
What does participation involve?
Online focus groups will be conducted with small groups of parents/caregivers to share their experiences and knowledge on low-carbohydrate diets in the management of their child’s type 1 diabetes.
How can I find out more?
If you have any questions or would like to participate, please contact Dr Amelia Harray via email Amelia.Harray@telethonkids.org.au or by phone on (08) 6456 5882.
