[QUOTE="iHs, post: 754976, member: 8799"] Tighter control usually results in a lower bg level being felt before the hypo awareness feeling kicks in so that is why the NICE guidance of 6.5% is not good and why many D consultants dont recommend it as they know that due to the way injected insulin lowers bg, many diabetics with tight control (5mmol to 8mmol) will only get to experience the hypo feeling when bg falls down to about 3mmol or below that. Of course, eating a low carb diet helps keep bg controlled with less swings but doesnt do much to keep the hypo feeling at 3.5mmol. [/QUOTE]
