[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 1926147, member: 30007"] One thing I'd say is that Libre gives you a good indication of how slow insulin is. Firstly, for meals like Beans on Toast, a 20 minute pre-bolus often isn't early enough and I need a 40 minute pre-bolus, but you'd need to experiment with timing. Secondly, beans on toast is, for me, one of "those" meals, in that the content of the meal doesn't match the nutritional information on the packet. I think the protein content of the beans added to the carbs causes a prolonged higher level. [/QUOTE]
