Summary

This protocol will investigate physiological parameters including insulin sensitivity and counterregulatory function using a mixed meal test and induced hypoglycemia in subjects with type I diabetes.

Conditions

  • Type 1 Diabetes Mellitus

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Mixed meal and insulin challenge

The subject will undergo a mixed meal and insulin challenge as follows: an insulin bolus will be administered and a mixed meal nutrition drink will be consumed over 1-5 minutes. The mixed meal nutrition drink will be selected for that individual to be most likely to raise the glucose levels by 100mg/dl and then return to baseline within a four-hour time period. The nutrition drink will selected from the following types of product lines: Boost products (Nestle Nutrition), Ensure products (Abbott Nutrition), Carnation Instant Breakfast (Nestle Nutrition) or Glucerna (Abbott Nutrition).The pre-meal insulin bolus will be calculated to bring the subject to \~100mg/dl at 1100.
