Hi I was just diagnosed with T1 2 weeks ago and I was reading that 15 mins after you take a fast reacting carbohydrate you need to take a slow reacting carbohydrate- I know some fast ones but what are some things I could use for the follow up treatment if my next meal isn't due?
something like a couple of oatcakes or biscuits, an apple, a 9-bar or something similar.
Plenty of options, think of something fruit based, or wholegrain, with fibre and possibly a bit of fat to slow the rate of release vs the immediate fast actors (I carry fun-sized haribos for that by the way)
