Situations where the base rate needs to be reduced

1. During strenuous exercise

Prolonged strenuous exercise will reduce the body's need for insulin, and the foundation rate will be temporarily lowered when the strenuous exercise exceeds 60 to 90 minutes. The pump can be switched on 90 to 120 minutes before the start of the movement and the "temporary reduction of the base rate" is maintained for about 8 hours after the exercise.

Take a hot bath/sauna

Because blood flow speeds up insulin absorption and insulin use speeds up, hypoglycemia can be induced and the base rate can be temporarily reduced by 1-2 hours in advance.

3, drinking

Sugar friends are not recommended to drink alcohol, but they are not supposed to drink at work or they have a habit of drinking. Therefore, sugar friends should remember to use "temporarily reduce the base rate" before drinking, and reduce the base rate two hours before the meal.
