Apologies for all my random posts on my diabetes but while I get great support from my diabetes team, I'm rapidly coming to the conclusion that I have to work it all myself if i am to get my BS under control - with help from DUK!
I was listening to a podcast last night from some type 1 guys in California who were advocating a plant based diet to improve insulin sensitivity.
I've always been told I am insulin insensitive and certainly seem able to tolerate rough and ready calculations on how much Novorapid to use. I was interested to hear on the podcast about calculating your insulin sensitivity. It was all a bit fast and loose (a/b=c style) so wanted to know if there is a definitive way to calculate insulin sensitivity and so see how it might improve over time as I tinker with my diet and insulin/carb ratios?
Regards,
Chris
