[QUOTE="Jackco, post: 2342961, member: 534596"] Hi, everyone, I'm on MDI with NR and Tresiba. I recently noticed that when I have a fairly high fat meal ( around 25-30 ish grams of fat) my BG will be unstable. I usually only count carbs when I bolus, but 2 hrs pot meal ( with high fat) my BG comes down to in the range that I expected. But I found that around 3-4 hr even later, my BG will slowly rise up, I think that is due to the high fat that slows down the absorption of the carbs. Are unsaturated fats like in peanut butter, avocado, nuts, olive oil...etc more easier to digest in order to prevent the delayed spike? I've heard that u can add 25% of insulin and split 50/50 pre meal and 90-120 mins post meal to cover that delayed spike. Can some one help me with this kind of issue, I have been struggling with it, also Im pretty new to T1D, so ya. I know every individuals are different, and metabolise food differently, I just want some reference so I can try on my body, trials and errors right? [/QUOTE]
