[QUOTE="In Response, post: 2340067, member: 527103"] There is no definite answer. Different foods are digested at different rates. Those of us treated with insulin are aware of fast acting carbs such as jelly babies which can impact out blood sugars in ten to fifteen minutes. On the other hand, fatty carby foods such as curry or pizza can take 5 hours to reach their peak. Plus you have to add the "we are all different" factor. And the "when did you last take your insulin and how much do you have on board" factor. [/QUOTE]
