General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Thank you for asking!
Last i checked was high sugar consumption trouble some for metabolic derangements and resulting neuropathies and collateral damage. low sugar consumption is a vague term. One should use low sugar but 40 percent of carbohydrates of daily food intake. Consult a dietitian for further dietary plan and better guidance. Body itself has its own ways to make glucose so no worries if your glucose intake is low.what usually is thought low is not low from professional point of view.
Take care
