Hi Candy, I know there’s been lots of discussion /replies whilst I’ve been sleeping but just to confirm from my experience I do need to bolus for protein in the absence of carbs, but at only 50% rate of carbs. So, instead of 1unit insulin/10g carb I inject 1unit insulin/20g protein. Needs to be injected approx. one hour later also. If I was eating high carb I wouldn’t need this. My BGs are so much improved on keto; eg FBG 3.7mmol/L (66.6mg/dL) this morning and not hypo. Averaging 5mmol/L currently (90 mg/dL) which is my goal. This WOE is definitely the magic pill!
