[QUOTE="Rianne, post: 1553074, member: 427618"] Thanks, Azure, for tagging and for the hope giving remark! And thanks, Justbe, for your so helpful information. I do have type 1 for decades, but have never taken into account the impact of protein digestion on insulin and blood glucose level. Since starting ketogenic, my night glucoses were fine, I needed less basal insuline. But during the day my blood glucose started rising very very slowly, and did not drop sufficiently despite increasing basal dose and/or physicial activities. If I understand you correctly protein does require insulin. Probably with an extended bolus. That seems to fit with the trend in my bg's so far. I feel quite misguided by all the information that is given to me in the past, both by my health care pro's and by most spread info on the internet.... In the question I posted here, I used the words 'eye openers', and I feel you just did that with your explanations. Thanks, Justbe, it does me good to feel taken seriously. I'm gonna indeed keep an eye on research surrounding insulin doses for protein and fat. I did already find the following (not perse scientific) page, that I'm gonna read and that might interest you or others as well: [URL]https://optimisingnutrition.com/2015/06/15/the-blood-glucose-glucagon-and-insulin-response-to-protein/[/URL] I go ahead with finetuning my basal doses with proteins in mind and the further tips you gave. It feels like an interesting path! NB. I'm new here on this site and forum system, and my native language is not English. In case my responses are unclear or incorrect, feel free to let me know.
