Since this is a YMMV thing, the only way that you can tell how many and what
carbs he can eat is by monitoring his blood glucose levels. If he doesn't
have a blood glucose meter, get one. If he has one, start testing BGs before
and after meals (at one and two hours). This will give him an idea what he
can and can not eat, and how much.
