[QUOTE="Hertfordshiremum, post: 2203090, member: 507802"] Hi I am Type 1 LADA, I take 0.5 units Novorapid per 10 g of carbs, but I strongly suggest a diary as for me it depends on what the carbs are. For example I can eat 100g of Kefir yogurt which is 10g of carbs and half a unit of Novorapid would cover this perfectly. However if I tried to eat 10g carbs of wheat bread my BG goes sky high, if I take extra insulin to cover my reaction I still spike and then have a hypo later, So I have cut out wheat bread. But have found I can eat pure Rye bread without a problem using my current ratio. Everyone is different so if you are new to this definitely keep a food and insulin diary and you will get to know what works for you. If anyone has any suggestions for me they will be gratefully received as I have quite a list of foods that I have cut out. [/QUOTE]
