[QUOTE="MauroM, post: 2211397, member: 501742"] I agree that you should take as much insulin as needed to maintain acceptable levels of blood glucose (not too high and definitely not too low). As for the bolus and low carb thing, I found that eating low carb, associated with exercise (which seems to increase insulin sensitivity), reduced my doses. I think this is good, because, since there's always an error associated with guessing and dosing, the lower the dose (in units), the lower the associated error and the lesser the chances of hypers or hypos. If you can maintain good blood glucose levels, it is not strictly necessary to keep low carb (although I highly recomend ;)) [/QUOTE]
