Curious if you inject insulin yourself?
I’m Type 1 diabetic and have been injecting for 10+ years now.
I really see a tool like this being useful for newly diagnosed and/or younger diabetics, particularly if you add a visual component.
I inject 4-6 times a day and after a few months of that you really start to develop a reasonable feel for how much to inject based on a lot of factors. I couldn’t tell you how many carbs are in my dinner but I feel like tonight is a 6 unit night.
I think this would benefit from visual component of this and the input could be simpler. Like just show bread and say a piece of bread is usually about 20g of carbs. Then show other foods that are about 20g so the user can make these associations faster.
Or make it a game and show the food and ask the user to guess the carbs.
