Death wish diet?

, you would not take it for the next 4hrs because insulins life time is about 4hrs post injection. So, this means you would be left with 8hrs and 29 doses to go (based on a 12hr day).

Gear I agree with everything in your post except this.
People will count their carbs with the iu of insulin . So x amount of carbs per iu.

If someone takes a shot a 6pm and eat the required carbs they can do a shot again to 8pm if they eat the carbs required for that shot

Gixx,

Hi and thanx for your input. I'm always open to other opinions and suggestions.

You're right. If you have your BG levels under control by giving your body the right amount of carbohydrates, you could certinly have another shot of insulin. However, I do not see the point of this, not for bodybuilding purposes anyway. Once you have had a dose of insulin, there is no need to dose again while insulin is still active. So what you said certinly can be done, but not really necessary IMO.

Thanx again for your input.

Gear- really superior post
outstanding, clear, point by point fact based reasoning,easy to comprehend,
simply the best explanation of insulin and diet I have yet seen on any board or anywhere else. Excellent questions for reflection at the end. I am a science teacher (physics) and I am really impressed by your logical and very understandable presentation.

Let me add, if you look at my posts, I am not a cheerleader for the mods, but this post was exceptionally educational.

Thank you I try my best to come across as understanding as possible.

Gixx, I am going to play the hyjacker.

Here is the graph regards to the PM conversation...

As for everyone else, the following graph shows different types of insulins and their active-life times.
