Excerise and insulin Hey Everybody,
I just wanted to find out a couple of things about exercising and Insulin and how to counteract for sugar lows etc. I've made the desicion to take on an intense exercise regime in order to try and build a bit of muscle and get into shape. It's rather hectic on both cardio and weightlifting. Now I know that the more you exercise the more effective your insulin on board becomes so I'm a bit worried about sugar lows while I'm exercising. What is the best way to get around this? Do I go and exercise with high sugar?? I'v also heard that normal people won't burn fat if thier insulin production is too high and thats why they've gotta eat protien with their carbs to lower their insulin production. now how do we as diabetics do this without having high bg's?? I guess we just gotta eat right to minimise our insulin requirements?? Please can someone let me know if I'm right or off track. Any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks
