Hi Mycie
Also an advantage to having a record of BG beyond 1 or 2 hours is the awareness that "Fat is not a free food". The Food Insulin Index was based on BG after 2 hours, while the BG reaction to fat is less acute but remains longer than the rise from carbs. Marty Kendall lives in the T1 world by managing 2 CGMs and 2 Insulin Pumps 24/7, why his book Big Fat Keto Lies is so fascinating. Contrary to popular belief, the menace isn’t insulin toxicity but rather—energy toxicity. Insulin is just trying to do its job in the face of an onslaught of low-satiety, nutrient-poor, hyperpalatable foods that cause us to eat more than our bodies require.
