how many grams of carbs are allowed per meal with type2 diabetes?
Try to stay within 60 grams carbs. I will save 15 carbs from breakfast, lunch & dinner to use as between meal snacks. But the number of carbs per meal will vary with the daily total caloric intake your dietician/nutritionist has recommended.

It all depends upon the person.
There is no longer the one size fits all diet plan.
Your dietitian can help you put together a program to meet your health needs.

my dietitian recommended 45 g of carbs per meal. She said that an adults brain needs a minimum of 135 g carbs each day to function properly. But each person is different as to what their body can handle, you should check with a dietician for your appropriate amount of carbs.

It depends on the number of calories that you need for your ideal weight. 45% of your cal should be from carbs and 30% from fats.
