slin again
Hi,
I have two questions regarding insulin that maybe someone can answer:
1) when you advise against taking fats while insulin is active, why is that? Is the use of fats while insulin still active bad in terms of getting hypo or is it advice against for a different reason like storing fat and such?
2) I know many of you recommend to take about 75 grms of whey after shot( with the dextrose..) since you will be able to assimilate more protein while on insulin. My question is, does it apply to just PWO or should you be eating more protein than usual while on insulin all day long?
Thanks

hey
1) The reason that you should limit your fat intake while slin is active is just because it is more likely to be stored as fat. It would not make you go hypo.
2) You should try to increase your protein intake while the slin is active the general rule of thumb is, PWO 75g protein "X" Amount of dex : (1.25 later) PPWO 50g/50g Protein/Carbs : (2.25 later) PPPWO 50g/40g Protein/Carbs. Much more protein than that would be excessive for most of us. 3-3.5 hours after your shot assuming that your using humalog subQ, you can eat as you normally do.
I hope that helps

You should eat more protien while the slin is active. But after that just eat the same as always.

Minus the fat as you don't want fat storage. Protein intake should be high for PWO, and slightly higher than usual for the rest of the the time while insulin is active.
