Insulin / Carb / Blood glucose ratio

[gavin86]

So, just working out ratios and had a question:

If 1u handles 10g carb, and 1u corrects blood sugar by 2mmol/L -

does this mean 10g carb should increase blood sugar by 2mmol/L?

Or is the relationship not that straightforward?

Hi @gavin86 That's how most models work for the relationship between ICR and CSF. Generally, the confounding factor isn't the amount you will go up or down, it's the time taken to do so.
