Answer #1

Answer : Pre meal sugar for Mike = 102mg/dl

Insulin ratio of 1:12 indicates 1 unit of insulin covers 12 grams of carbohydrate.

carbohydrate in Breakfast :

4 ounces of grilled chicken= 0.1 grams CHO

1.5 cup rice=68grams CHO

1 teaspoon butter= 0 grams CHO

Total amount of carbohydrate consumed in breakfast = 0.1+ 68 + 0= 68.1 grams

Amount of insulin that will cover 68.1 grams of carbohudrate = 1/2 x 68.1= 5.66Unit

Round up to the nearest whole number= 6 unit
