Hi there,

Thank you for the question, @JamesCollier may have some insight into this, however we are not doctors so may not be able to be specific.

Hi. The DAPHNE system is very flexible, so you might be best to weigh your Huel and get the exact amount of carbs in order to dose your insulin correctly.

I am a type 1 diabetic and love Huel!

Allows me to very easily weigh my food, knowing I am getting a balanced meal.

And depending on my carb ratio for that time of day ie before or after exercise It allows me even tighter control.

Any questions fire away
