Message: <blockquote data-quote="Brunneria" data-source="post: 1259281" data-attributes="member: 41816">I assume you are using yourself as the test subject?There are a number of variables that you will need to take into account when you run your study.- what was eaten beforehand (having food in the stomach and intestine may slow down the glucose absorption).- level of blood glucose before the test (I think that if your blood glucose is dropping fast when the glucose hits the bloodstream, it may look as if it is absorbing slowly, when in fact it is hitting fast but just filling the drop)- insulin resistance at the time of the test, affecting the effectiveness of your onboard insulin (this can be affected by exercise, previous carb intake and amount of insulin used recently)Hope that helps, and I am sorry if I just made it more complicated! <img src="data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7" class="smilie smilie--sprite smilie--sprite1" alt=":)" title="Smile    :)" loading="lazy" data-shortname=":)" /></blockquote>
