Good question. I would assume that if you happen to be carb
intolerant, like I and quite a few other people in this world it
measn eating enough protein to provide amino acids and proteins
to maintain muscle mass and break down into required nutrients,
fat for the body to turn into ketones to fuel our little krebs
cycle, and enough fiber to maintain the 30 grams we supposedly
need to keep the intestinal tract happy. If you happen to be of
the type that can handle higher levels of carb, then it would be
enough protein, fat and fibre as above, plus carbs to turn into
glucose. I happen to function quite well on a low carb regimen
and keep my morning bg stick between 90 and 105, 2 hours after
meal at about 120, 4 hours after meal at about 115. Very
satisfactory, no major wobbles in my BG to stress out my body.

Does anyone know the correct definition of proper dietary?

If you don't you get diabetes.
