[QUOTE="novorapidboi26, post: 2095975, member: 90156"] Yeah, more insulin may be required, however it can be done with more accuracy these days..... Due to the dawn phenomenon, which is the liver releasing glucose and other hormones being released like cortisol, resistance to insulin is increased in the morning....... So what you need to do, or what you can do if you choose is work out how that resistance effects you personally by working out how much 1 unit drops you by during this time and how many grams of carbs one unit will deal with at this time also.... So a new insulin/carb ratio as well as a correction factor.....if you get them as close to right as possible, then it wont be so much of a guessing game.... Getting something in your stomach to digest will actually stop the liver and the other hormones as you have now fueled up and the livers services are no longer required... [/QUOTE]
