1 Dr Kirstie Bell APD/CDE, PhD University of Sydney Beyond Carb Counting: Dietary Fat & Protein in T1D

2 Carb Counting Carb Counting is gold standard method for adjusting mealtime insulin doses Carbohydrates don t affect blood glucose levels equally (Glycemic Index) Evidence for the efficacy of carbohydrate counting is limited Treating symptoms vs. cause Lots of factors stimulate insulin production

3 Carbohydrate Counting Does Not Significantly Improve HbA1c Overall change in HbA1c: -0.35% points (p = 0.096) Bell et al, Lancet Diab & Endo 2014; 2(2):

4 Dietary Fat, Protein & BGL Dietary fat & protein are insulin secretagogues In healthy individuals, minimal impact on BGL but significant insulin response In T1D, insufficient mealtime insulin = substantial postprandial hyperglycaemia Normal BGL High BGL Insulin Meal Insulin Meal

5 Dietary Fat Seven studies (103 patients) All studies showed dietary fat influenced glycaemia Reduces early postprandial glucose rise (first 2-3h) Delays peak glucose level Leads to late postprandial hyperglycaemia ( 3h) High fat meals ( 35g of fat) requires insulin adjustment Bell et al. Diabetes Care 2015; 38:

6 Dietary Protein Seven studies (125 patients) All studies showed dietary protein influenced glycaemia Delayed effect on glycaemia (>100 mins) Different effect with and without carbohydrate Insulin adjustment needed for: 30g protein with carbs 75g protein alone Bell et al. Diabetes Care 2015; 38:

7 Dietary Fat Increases BGL and Insulin Requirements High Fat vs Low Fat Dinner on postprandial BGL using closed loop insulin delivery Wolpert et al. Diabetes Care 2013;36:

8 Fat and Protein Increase Insulin Requirements Fat & Protein (HF/HP) Fat (HF/LP) Protein (LF/HP) CHO (LF/LP) Smart et al. Diabetes Care 2013; 36:

9 Change in BGL (mmol/l) Dietary Fat & Protein Raise BGL Low Fat, Low Protein High Fat, High Protein 5.5 mmol/l Time (Minutes) Bell (2016) Diabetes Care 39(9):

10 Pure Protein Raises BGL Paterson et al. Diabetic Medicine 2016;33(5)

11 How should Insulin Doses be Adjusted for Protein/Fat?

12 Warsaw Insulin Pump Therapy (Pankowska) Method

13 Fat/Protein Unit (FPU) Counting Warsaw School of Insulin Pump Therapy have developed a novel algorithm to calculate the total insulin dose needed to cover carbohydrate plus protein & fat. Fat and Protein is counted together as a Fat and Protein Unit (FPU), where 1 FPU = 100kCal of fat and/or protein. How to dose insulin: 1. Normal wave bolus for carbohydrate using usual ICR 2. Dual or square wave bolus for FPU using same ICR and run over 3-8hr depending on number of FPU Pankowska et al Pediatric Diabetes 2009; 10(5):

14 Example: Cheese Pizza 2 Slices = 45g Carbs = 9g Fat (81Kcal) = 20g Protein (80Kcal) If ICR is 1u:1x 15g Carb Exchange Then need 3 units for Carbs 161 Kcal = 1 FPU = +1 unit of insulin Delivered as Dual Wave 3u upfront (75%), 1u (25%) over 3h Pankowska et al Pediatric Diabetes 2009; 10(5):

15 Model Predicted Boluses

16 Model Predicted Boluses Optimised insulin dose is determined through mathematical modelling Observe the effect of insulin dose & nutrients on glycaemia Predict insulin dose needed to optimise blood glucose level Trial the predicted insulin dose to see if accurate Bell (2016) Diabetes Care 39(9):

17 Objective To optimally define: What insulin DOSE is needed? What percentage should be given immediately (Split)? How long to extend the remaining portion (Duration)? Bell (2016) Diabetes Care 39(9):

18 Methods 10 adults with type 1 diabetes using insulin pump therapy & CGM Admitted to the Joslin Diabetes CRC on 3 to 7 occasions On the first 2 occasions, subjects were given a Low Fat and a High Fat meal with the insulin dose calculated using Carbohydrate: Insulin Ratio (CIR) with dual wave 50/50% over 2 hrs 6 hour postprandial venous BGL monitoring Bell (2016) Diabetes Care 39(9):

19 Test Meals Low Fat Meal Pizza & Tomato Paste 50g Carbohydrate 9g Protein 4g Fat High Fat Meal Pizza, Tomato Paste & Cheese 50g Carbohydrate (equal) 36g Protein (+27g) 44g Fat (+40g) Bell (2016) Diabetes Care 39(9):

20 Methods Subsequent sessions, subjects were given the same high fat/high protein meal with insulin dose, split and duration calculated using Model Predicted Bolus (MPB) For safety, insulin dose was limited to a 75% increase per session High fat/high protein meal repeated with new MPB until BG response optimised Bell (2016) Diabetes Care 39(9):

21 Blood Glucose Level (mmol/l) Adding 40g Fat & 27g Protein Increases Postprandial Glycaemia LFLP HFHP No Patients had Hypo Time (Minutes) 5.5 mmol/l Bell (2016) Diabetes Care 39(9):

22 Blood Glucose Level (mmol/l) 75% More Insulin Required Dual Wave: 30/70% over 2.5hr LFLP HFHP HFHP - Optimised Time (Minutes) No Patients had Hypo Bell (2016) Diabetes Care 39(9):

23 Food Insulin Index (FII)

24 Estimating Mealtime Insulin Dose in Type 1 Diabetes Current Thinking Carbohydrate Counting Novel Thinking Insulin Response in Healthy Individuals Glycaemic Response Insulin Demand Bolus Insulin Dose Bolus Insulin Dose

25 Food Insulin Index (FII) Relative measure of the normal insulin demand of a food Insulin response measured in healthy adults Foods measured in 1000kJ portions Relative to a reference food FII = 120min AUCInsulin for 1000kJ of test food x min AUCInsulin for 1000kJ of ref. food Published FII represents the average of 10 subjects Developed a FII database of 147 foods Bao et al.

34 Conclusion FII improved acute postprandial glycaemia compared to carbohydrate counting without increasing the risk of hypo s

35 How Would We Use The FII in Practice?

36 FII vs FID Food Insulin Index (FII) is a measure of a food s relative insulin demand compared with other foods I.e. The FII is a fixed value that doesn t change as the food portion size changes. Apple FII: 43 Food Insulin Demand (FID) combines a food s FII with the kj in the portion size I.e. The FID changes as the food portion size changes and can therefore be used to determine the mealtime insulin dose. White Bread, 1 Slice FII: 73 FID: 26

37 Food Insulin Demand FID = Energy (kj) x Food Insulin Index (FII) 1,000 e.g. 200g low-fat strawberry yoghurt (FII = 84) FID = 770kJ x 84 1,000 FID = 65

38 Using FID in Practice Jane eats 200g of her low-fat strawberry yoghurt Insulin Demand (FID) = 65 Jane s Insulin: FID ratio is 1:16 Therefore, Jane needs 4 units of insulin to cover her yoghurt

44 Dose Adjustment Guidelines Healthy eating Optimise conventional insulin therapy Identify target meals Start small, monitor closely, review frequently Bell et al. Diabetes Care 2015; 38:

45 Key Clinical Questions 1. What is the threshold for fat & protein? 2. What is the dose-response relationship between fat/protein and BGL? 3. What affect does the type of fat or protein have? 4. How do insulin doses need to be adjusted for fat and/or protein?
