[QUOTE="catapillar, post: 1279643, member: 32394"] I'm going to cautiously go with no. It's something I try to avoid anyway (certainly not always successfully!). So there are things you can do to avoid spikes: Sugar surfing - not eating until you are under a certain level - this works better with CGM/libre. There's a book by Stephen ponder & lots of online resources in this method. Pre bolusing, this is incorporated in sugar surfing, but it can take 15, 30 minutes or more before the insulin starts irking, if you eat before ythe insulin is acting, you aren't going to be able to avoid the spike Lower GI food, or combining macros to delay carb action This article is really good - [URL]http://www.diabetesselfmanagement.com/managing-diabetes/blood-glucose-management/strike-the-spike-ii/[/URL] [/QUOTE]
