Key Points

  • This work aims to quantify how fat and protein in meals affect postprandial glucose levels in individuals with type 1 diabetes.
  • Model-based methodology was employed to analyze glucose excursions after meals in real-life conditions.
  • The study focused on integrating the effects of dietary fat and protein on glucose levels using an automated insulin delivery system.
  • Significant variations in postprandial glucose excursions were observed based on the quantities of fat and protein consumed.
  • Findings suggest that modified insulin therapy can improve management of post-meal glucose levels in individuals with diabetes.

Abstract

In this work, the effect of MC on postprandial glucose excursion was quantified in real-life conditions with the help of a model-based methodology. These results are usable for redesigning current insulin therapies, accounting for the presence of fat and protein in meals.
