Is cornstarch included in a low carb diet?

Cornstarch is not typically considered to be a low carb food. One tablespoon of cornstarch contains about 7 grams of carbs, which is relatively high for a low carb diet. However, there are some low carb diets that do allow for small amounts of cornstarch to be consumed. If you are on a low carb diet and are not sure whether you should consume cornstarch, you should talk to your doctor or nutritionist.
