Testing Your Basal with Fasting

I recently did a two-week experiment with a strict carnivorous diet dubbed the Paleolithic Ketogenic Diet.. and here’s how it went!

When eating a lot of meat, I notice that my single dose of R insulin doesn’t make the cut. My blood sugar would rise hours after eating! Here’s my solution.

When your blood sugar is just a little low, what’s the best way to get it up without going overboard? With a little tool known as micro-dosing!

Can you survive and stay low-carb for a week at one of the ADA’s diabetic summer camps? I decided to volunteer as a counselor and see for myself.

Managing your diabetes can seem impossible. But, by following the Law of Small Numbers, you can control your blood sugars and tame your type 1!

Your basal, AKA your long-acting insulin, is the most important thing to nail down when managing type 1 diabetes. It is the foundation of your insulin regimen, and getting it right is critical. And the best way to test it is with fasting.
