About Advanced Insulin Advisor
Advanced Insulin Advisor is an application that calculates the optimal insulin bolus from the current glucose and the amount of carbohydrates to eat. The calculation doesn’t only take into account the current values, but also the residual active insulin in the body from previous injected boluses. All of this is done automatically.
Carbohydrates can be entered directly or using the menus function. This function provides the amount of carbohydrates directly from an intuitive predefined food database with pictures, dishes with different sizes, weights, volumes, etc. It is also possible to introduce additional conditions for the calculation, such as whether physical exercise has been performed, a disease is being present, stress, etc.
All measurements are stored in a database, including the blood glucose value, the carbohydrates amount, the insulin value, events, etc. Besides being able to review it at any time, a report in web page format can be generated which, transferred to a PC, can be printed for reviewing with the doctor, etc.
Also, it includes additional features such as measurement reminders, quick menus, warnings of hyper/hypoglycemia, advise of fast-acting carbohydrates, help, etc.
NEW !!: Download thousands of additional dishes from different regions around the world.

When I started pre-prandial insulin, I had no idea how to calculate my insulin units. This app has been wonderful. I had a bit of a problem downloading additional menus, but the support by David has been terrific. Great product, especially for beginning users of pre-prandial insulin.
