insulin and carbs-

[perfectspecimen]

how many carbs is one supposed to consume and in what time after they inject insulin. what is the carbs to iu of insulin ratio.
and what should a 110kg male start out with?

is it better to take it twice a day or three times and should the doses be equal?

for humilin R you want to have 10 grams of carbs for every iu immediately after and about an hour and a half later. Always have some glucose tabs around or a can of soda just in case you start to feel hypo. The general rule is to start with 5iu and go up 1iu a day until you hit 10iu.

is insulin good to throw into a lean gainer cycle, and does using ala increase the effects of it?

ALA is not good to mix with insulin because it messes up the amount of carbs that you get and you stand a greater chance of going hypo. You can use insulin as a lean gainer but you have to keep the diet really clean and try to find the minimum amount of carbs to take in without going hypo and also try to avoid fat all together or at bare minimum for 4 hours after you take it. Even with doing all of that you may put on a littles blubber. I would not recommend doing it to cut for the first time you take it because it is so much easier and safer to take in more carbs than it is trying to minimalize things. After you have done it and know how your body reacts to it than go for it, but for the first time I would stick to bulking, jmo.

I think that would be a good mix because it has both complex and simple carbs. I would say take in a sports drink or something similiar with simple carbs right away. Than have a meal with some complex carbs like 15 minutes to a half hour later. I just take in an N'Large and some Cell-Tech creatine right away and have another N'Large an hour and a half later and have yet to have any problems
