Gary Scheiner, CDCES, and I break down how to improve mealtime insulin dosing and why boluses still matter even with automated insulin delivery systems. We talk through insulin-to-carb ratios, pre-bolus timing, extended boluses, and how different foods impact post-meal blood sugar patterns. Gary shares practical ways to read your CGM data to tell whether highs and lows are caused by timing, dosing, or carb counting challenges. We also cover strategies for handling slow-digesting meals, high-fat foods, and unpredictable eating situations without increasing hypoglycemia risk.
