Welcome to our new series, That One Thing, where we cover one habit, medicine, or strategy that could improve your diabetes management. 

Managing diabetes is hard. So we try to tackle just one thing at a time.  

This week, we’re talking about pre-bolusing — the simple (but not always easy) act of taking insulin before you eat.

We break down: 

  • Our own pre-bolus fails - and how to avoid them.
  • How to know if your insulin timing is off.
  • Why insulin works fast one meal - and slow the next.
  • Tips for pre-bolusing in a restaurant. 
  • How to make pre-bolusing feel less annoying. 

Listen now.
