Diabetes.. the maths

Type 1 is mathematical fun 

You need to workout the food you are ready to eat 

Then test your sugars, to balance the feat.

Say you have 30 grams of carbs in a portion

That’s 3 units of insulin to inject, 

One unit, lowers blood by 2 to 3 millimoles,

And you need to regard the correction if sugars are high

They need to be accounted for, to maintain the sign. 

So if your reading is 6.5 

All you need to regard is the food you digest

And induce an appropriate amount of insulin so sugars don’t go high, or low

The art of the condition is to be analytical yet human in spirit

The condition is manageable if maths is the key 

Allow the mind work logically as the outcome sets free. 

The key to a successful diabetes diet is to know your numbers, 

And what they truly do,

Allow the condition be your friend with the art it possess 

The ultimate understanding is to try your very best...
