question about insulin protocol

[s.norman]

i usually take my humulin shot 16iu at same time as 1st meal-50g protein and 125g complex carbs..an 1.5 hr later wen humulin starts to peak i hit the gym w/ a shake consisting of 50g protein whey and 100g dextrose..i drink throughout the w/o...am i consuming too many carbs for the humulin to handle? will this protocol work?

I would think its fine - If your not getting fat then your in the ball park - you might be able to bump bump bump it up

For me I can do a min of 5 carbs per I.U. but the question lyes do I want to only do 5 carbs per i.u. or do I want my body to get 15 carbs per i.u for more growht... pROviding that I am not gonna be getting fat and my body actually makes use of them.

The usual is 10 carbs per I/u

Or do I want 20 grams per i.u. ?

Hell I might want 12 grams per i.u -



Up to the ind to figure out what works best for them


If you new to insulin you don't start with 5 grams per i.u. - for safety reasons

Good luck mate -
