Table 3.

Glucose values, carbohydrate intake and insulin adjustments across the study arms.

Study Arm (% HRR) Baseline Glucose (mmol/L) Insulin Prior to Exercise* (U/kg) CHO Prior to Exercise (g) CHO During Exercise (g) Number of Participants Requiring CHO During Exercise
45–55 5.8 (4.9–7.0) 0.27 (0.21–0.43) 0 (0–66) 0 (0–44) 3
70 8.7 (6.2–9.4) 0.22 (0.16–0.26) 0 (0–24) 0 (0–12) 2
80 7.3 (6.2–8.6) 0.24 (0.19–0.33) 0 (0–8) 0 (0–44) 1
90 6.4 (5.5–7.3) 0.29 (0.14–0.30) 0 (0–20) 0 (0–36) 2

Data are presented as median and quartiles (Q1–Q3). CHO prior to exercise (from arrival at the lab) and during exercise are presented as median and (total grams), and do not include the standard Glucerna bar. HRR - heart rate reserve. *Amount of insulin taken the day of the exercise session, not including post-exercise.
