[QUOTE="LittleGreyCat, post: 2201434, member: 6467"] As a T2 one major change advised is to up the exercise and build more and fitter muscle. This helps to reduce Insulin Resistance and to use insulin more effectively to get glucose out of the bloodstream and into the tissues. I assume that the same must apply to T1s. You may not have significant IR but developing muscles which clear glucose faster would suggest less insulin and/or more carbs on exercise days might be worth considering. [/QUOTE]
