Introduction. The glycemic impact of moderately high or low carbohydrate intake in an isocaloric diet remains undetermined. Report. An intervention was carried out with pregnant women with type 2 diabetes, who were fitted with a continuous glucose monitor for two weeks. They followed two 7-day nutritional plans, the first with 60% of the total caloric value coming from carbohydrates (VCT60), and the second with 40% of the total caloric value from carbohydrates (VCT40). On the first day of each week, a supervised breakfast corresponding to the intervention was provided. During the VCT60 week, there was a tendency for: lower average glucose, higher number of hypoglycemia events, and higher frequency of sensor scans compared to the VCT40 week. Conclusion. The continuous glucose monitor was well-received and assisted in making decisions regarding their diet and medical treatment
