Glucose level after eating
Good morning, does anyone know why at two hours after having eaten I have a lot less than 180 and at 3 hours I get to 180 or more?
For fat.
The fat becomes a carb -at approximately 3 hours of having ingested it, when the liver processes it.
Unfortunately for us, fat is like hydrate, it requires insulin to a greater or lesser extent.
There are diabetics that do not have this problem, but usually happens to the vast majority.
I personally raise glycemia fat much more than hydrate.
Lada enero 2015.

And because then there is little fast insulin in the body
Thank you so much!!!Would you have to get more insulin?Or slower?
I usually rectify and put on 1 more cdo I reached 200 ...

In those cases always faster.The amount depends on your insulin sensitivity.
If with a rapid raisin unit from 200 to 100 then a unit.For example in your case if it were in 200, I have to put two units of fast
All the best
