I guess what I meant was, with flat insulins like Levemir, or the use of a pump, if you get yourself a good BG reading before bed (say 5.0 for example), and take a snack of slow releasing carbs (some crackers), and then your insulin, you can stay level most of the night (at least in theory), therefore reducing your night time hypos. I may be wrong given that I'm still too new at this.
