DCUK Quote of the day.

"The only way I can manage high-fat meals is to split-dose, taking one injection before food and another 2-3 hours after the meal is finished." Noblehead

Noblehead is a master at leaving out the most enlightening part of his anti fats posts. That is he has said this week he eats up to 200 grams of carb per day "more at weekends" So, what he should have said was when I eat a high carb high fat meal I have to split-dose. For most low carb high fat eating diabetics using injected insulin this is not a problem and split doses are not usually required.

Most enlightened diabetics and non diabetics know the worse possible combination for stable weight and blood glucose control is a high fat high carb meal. Nige may fool the newbies and non clued up but not those who are half awake.

It's such a pity you have to pick on certain people all the time it's a bit like a stuck record. What's worse is that you know nothing about insulin at all. So just for your ongoing education 99% of type 1's need to split their dose for high fat and or protein meals and quite often the dose has to be increased as well. Perhaps that's why it's suggested that a well balanced meal is eaten thus not so much insulin is needed. Live and learn hey Eddie but doubt that will happen with you.

I do know about insulin and perhaps you can tell me why 93% of UK type one diabetics fail to get to a safe HbA1c (NHS audited stats)

Oh I know they don't know about insulin and try to cover high fat high carb meals. It does not work the stats do not lie, unlike Nobblyhead.
