Carbs and Fiber in Thin Crust Pizza Food Item: Thin Crust Pizza, average
all types Thin Crust Pizza and CarbsPizza (like Thin Crust Pizza), is typically high in carbohydrates, and is not a recommended food on low carb diets - at least not in the more carb-restricted phases of the diet. Even so, depending on the pizza-topping, pizza can be a relatively healthy food with important vitamins and minerals. For more details about carbs in pizza, see below. Thin Crust Pizza and Glycemic IndexDue to their high carb-count, many regular pizza dishes are high on the glycemic index, and can cause unstable blood glucose levels and erratic glucose metabolism. For lower glycemic index pizza options, choose thin-crust pizza, rather than deep-pan, with vegetables (for fiber, to slow digestion), tomatoes (for their lycopene - an anti-cancer phytochemical) and mozzarella cheese (to slow digestion).
