[url]http://care.diabetesjournals.org/content/28/4/950.full[/url] Meals burning is NovoRapid Job. The whole idea behind Long acting insulin is: 1. That it facilitates i.e. make it easier for patients to control their Blood Sugar rather than having severe and uncontrollable ups and and downs, 2. To be like normal people since normal people have insulin in their bodies 24 hours If you eat little chocolate or small ice-cream and you have an active life style you really do not need to take 1 or 2 units to burn it. However if you are an overweight "Couch Potato" and are saturated with sugar then that is a different story.
