This will tell you how many grams of carbs will be taken care of by 1 unit of insulin. For example, my current ratio is <\/span><b>1 unit<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of insulin to <\/span><b>7 grams<\/b><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> of carbs, so if I eat something with 35 grams of carbohydrates, I will dose 5 units of insulin. This ratio will be different for each person based on lifestyle, diet, etc. Even your personal ratio may change over time, so make sure to discuss with your doctor if you need to adjust your routines.<\/span><\/p><p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">An extra note: your doctor or dietitian may refer to carbohydrate exchanges when discussing diet or insulin dosing.
