Glycemic Index - how "reliable" is it

Can we talk about “over bolus” or “double bolus”? It makes a lot of these foods very easy.

The general idea is that you don’t worry about matching the carbs and insulin exactly. Instead you give more insulin than is needed for what you are about to eat - which reduces the spike but can cause you to go low later on. You then feed the extra insulin for an hour or two with bonus food until the insulin is gone.

This is brief description. I think I did a better post somewhere but I can’t find it. Let’s talk about it sometime.
