[QUOTE="prancer53, post: 1237736, member: 85578"] What if favourite food is dumpling?s--bit of a no no because of v high cho value. Glycemic value...? 20 g ch is 20g cho whether it is low or high glycemic. I actually found that too much low glycemic food eaten= hypos because it takes so long to metabolise with injected insulin (the insulin is working but the food is lagging behind so there is more insulin than blood sugar going round the body)--this means that I end up eating sweets or glucose to counteract the hypo so it kind of defeats the objec!!. Also low glycemic food whilst exercising is not a good idea because it takes so long to work so type 1 s are burning up blood sugar more quickly than normal and meanwhile the effect of the insulin taken is exacerbated!! It is something that used to be taught and that care had to be taken over otherwise type 1 s can induce hypos inadvertently!!!! [/QUOTE]
