I need some help here with carb counting. And I need an accurate answer from someone on here
Long Story short I have Put on 2 and a half stone on in a matter of 1 month! I was happily 17 stone now im 19 and a half stone!
That means roughly I now weigh around 125 KG from 115 KG somewhere mabe a lil higher
Anyway right now my BGL is 4.6
So let's begin and make this fun.
Pop quizz!
These are the values for
5 biscuits each cookie is 20g
You may use a calculator.
Per 100g
Values
Energy 2095 KJ/500kcal
Fat. 23.2g
Of which Saturates. 11.5g
Carbohydrates 61.9g
Of which Sugars. 29.7g
Fibre. 5.8g
Salt. 0.70g
Using this formula
(You Take 1 unit of Insulin for every 10g of Carbohydrates Consumed)
How Many Units of Insulin would a typical Diabetic need to Eat these 5 cookies?
And explain your answer
Show your working out lol
