Welcome to another episode of The Low Carb Universe Show!

In episode 14, Bitte and Hanna discuss Hanna’s recent experiment and the importance of constantly tweaking your life style choices as a Type 1 Diabetic (or, as anyone, really). They also discuss:

• What is Type 1 Diabetes?
• Proteins vs Fats?
• Doctor Bernstein
• The individuality of keto/low carb
• Shameless #LCU18 plugging (You’ll find LCU18 here!)
• …and did Hanna just swear in the church of keto?!

Here’s also the 24 h graph from Hanna’s Dexcom continuous glucose monitor that was mentioned.

The picture shows Hanna’s blood glucose values for 24 h ranging from 3.2-5.5 mmol/l (58-99 mg/dl), including meals, insulin, exercise, work…

Edit: Hanna’s ketosis data 4 hours after lunch:

blood glucose: 5.7 mmol/l (102 mg/dl)
BHB (blood ketones): 3.3 mmol/l
Acetone (Ketonix): 16.7 PPM
