Some doctors recommend starting with a 1:15 ratio. Then you use trial and error to determine whether to increase/decrease that to best fit your own particular needs. The appropriate ratio can vary throughout the day. I am not very insulin sensative. I use 1:4 in the morning, 1:6 at lunch and the afternood and 1:5 in the evening. Those changes need to be adjusted in the winter when I am not getting much exercise. There many factors involved here. We are all different.
