You have to look especially at the maximum peak column.

In my body, for example normally the strip is 45min-1H and already beyond the 2h I do not notice effect.

You have to know you @cdb1, it is the main thing ... what we each tell you can guide you but nothing more.

@Marine I think I already understood it in the novorapid 10-15m the beginning and the maximum peak 1/2h a maximum effect or peak of action that is the period where there is more insulin effect, it must coincide with the maximum concentration of carbohydratesin the body, and an end of effect that is the active residual insulin after the end of the peak of action
That is why 10-15m the first thing to start eating are vegetables/vegetables followed by the Animal Prote and finally the HC
Food from least to greatest I.G
The maximum peak is in 1/2h therefore in that period of time the HC has to coincide with the insulin to avoid high peaks after each meal

@CDB1 also depends on the time of day.
For example, I get a newpid 45 min before breakfast to match the effect with food absorption.In the morning the body assimilates very fast.
In the food 10 min and at dinner just when I ingest the food.

It makes me peak at two hours and lasts 2.5 hours in my body.The 5 hours never, or when I debuted.

Another novorapid problem is that 1 unit are 4 drops and I have never managed to get the 4 drops, so my minimum is 2 units

Ok, you go well but an subsection.Do not obsess with the order of how you should eat because when you together you do the digestion of the total and if you put vegetables and vegetables the fiber of these slows the digestion.

Come normal, the most complicated thing to do is calculate the correct insulin dose.

Request it to the endocrine

@Colt asks for an appointment with your endocrine and exaggerates saying that you cannot control blood glucose.Thus puts you in the freestyle system.
I know the peaks and duration of insulin by the sensor.With capillaries it is very, very difficult.
