[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2362569, member: 53162"] Hi Cath - insulin is a hormone which regulates the glucose in the body, exercise improves insulin sensitivity and if you have too much quick acting insulin in your system and start exercising then you are absorbing the glucose in your system and which puts you at risk of going hypo, so it's best to exercise without quick acting insulin on board. Your basal insulin covers your bodies needs as a background insulin, it's quick acting insulin which poses a problem if you're exercising. [/QUOTE]
