Since athletic training and competition can markedly disturb blood glucose control, it can be difficult to manage diabetes in individuals who exercise excessively. Dr. Peters highlighted the importance of personalized care to optimize glycemic control for maximal health benefits and athletic success.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-3\u0022\u003EThe Nutrition and Athletic Performance Joint Position Statement of the American College of Sports Medicine, American Dietetic Association, and Dietitians of Canada, most recently revised in 2009, suggests that athletes should eat 6 to 10 g\/kg body weight of carbohydrates per day [\u003Cem\u003EMed Sci Sports Exerc\u003C\/em\u003E 2009]. For many patients with T1D, this can represent a challenge in insulin dosing. Higher amounts of carbohydrates require larger doses of insulin but increased workouts may improve insulin sensitivity and lower insulin requirements. This balance between carbohydrate ingestion, exercise and insulin dosing can create a difficult balance for athletes to maintain.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-4\u0022\u003EDr. Peters emphasized the need to understand the basics of exercise physiology. Muscles obtain glucose from their glycogen stores as a primary energy source, and once these sources are depleted, there is a balance between glucose production and uptake by exercising muscle. Immediately following exercise, in nondiabetic individuals, catecholamine levels rapidly decline and insulin increases, with restoration of muscle glycogen. Consequently, in individuals with T1D, glucose uptake may occur to such an extent that they become very sensitive to insulin and potentially hypoglycemic.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-5\u0022\u003EFor individuals with T1D, the fear of hypoglycemia is the strongest barrier to regular physical activity, and is certainly a concept that athletes often struggle with [Brazeau AS et al. \u003Cem\u003EDiabetes Care\u003C\/em\u003E 2008]. Although many athletes report reduced performance when their blood glucose levels are high, they conversely run into other problems if blood sugar levels are low. Hypoglycemia can occur during exercise for various reasons, including:\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\n         \u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022list-simple \u0022 id=\u0022list-1\u0022\u003E\u003Cli id=\u0022list-item-1\u0022\u003E\n               \u003Cp id=\u0022p-7\u0022\u003E\u25aa Insufficient carbohydrate intake\u003C\/p\u003E\n            \u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli id=\u0022list-item-2\u0022\u003E\n               \u003Cp id=\u0022p-8\u0022\u003E\u25aa More rapid insulin absorption\u003C\/p\u003E\n            \u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli id=\u0022list-item-3\u0022\u003E\n               \u003Cp id=\u0022p-9\u0022\u003E\u25aa Challenges in reducing basal insulin levels in individuals receiving injectable insulin\u003C\/p\u003E\n            \u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli id=\u0022list-item-4\u0022\u003E\n               \u003Cp id=\u0022p-10\u0022\u003E\u25aa Differences in insulin sensitivity before, during, and after exercise\u003C\/p\u003E\n            \u003C\/li\u003E\u003Cli id=\u0022list-item-5\u0022\u003E\n               \u003Cp id=\u0022p-11\u0022\u003E\u25aa The potential for acute and delayed hypoglycemia\u003C\/p\u003E\n            \u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003Cp\u003E\n      \u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-12\u0022\u003EStudies have confirmed that decreasing the amount of insulin at the meal prior to exercise can lower the risk of hypoglycemia immediately after exercise [Rabasa-Lhoret R et al. \u003Cem\u003EDiabetes Care\u003C\/em\u003E 2001]. Therefore, Dr. Peters recommends that athletes take half their usual insulin dose at the meal before exercise; then, if the blood glucose level is \u0026lt;150 mg\/dL, a 15- to 30-g carbohydrate snack is advised. A carbohydrate intake of 15 to 30 g is subsequently recommended for every 30 minutes of exercise. After exercise, a 30- to 60-g carbohydrate snack should be given with half of the usual insulin dose, and it is important to work with the athlete to reduce the overnight basal insulin level to prevent development of delayed postexercise hypoglycemia.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cp id=\u0022p-13\u0022\u003EDr. Peters concluded that the key to diabetes management in athletes is personalized care to help tailor solutions for their individual needs. Since blood glucose response varies between individuals and also their sports, it is important to investigate each athlete\u0027s response to their different activities. In addition to working closely with a physician, athletes with T1D should work with a registered dietitian to optimize their nutritional requirements. She stressed that this approach, aided by technology such as continued glucose monitoring, enables optimal management of blood glucose levels during training and events, allowing the athlete with T1D to compete safely and effectively.\u003C\/p\u003E\u003Cul class=\u0022copyright-statement\u0022\u003E\u003Cli class=\u0022fn\u0022 id=\u0022copyright-statement-1\u0022\u003E\u00a9 2013 MD Conference Express\u00ae\u003C\/li\u003E\u003C\/ul\u003E\u003Cspan class=\u0022highwire-journal-article-marker-end\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cspan id=\u0022related-urls\u0022\u003E\u003C\/span\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Ca href=\u0022http:\/\/mdc.sagepub.com\/content\/13\/10\/25.abstract\u0022 class=\u0022hw-link hw-link-article-abstract\u0022 data-icon-position=\u0022\u0022 data-hide-link-title=\u00220\u0022\u003EView Summary\u003C\/a\u003E\u003C\/div\u003E  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\n  \n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n  \u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\n\u003C\/div\u003E\u003Cscript type=\u0022text\/javascript\u0022 src=\u0022http:\/\/mdc.sagepub.com\/sites\/all\/modules\/highwire\/highwire\/plugins\/highwire_markup_process\/js\/highwire_openurl.js?nznou1\u0022\u003E\u003C\/script\u003E\n\u003C\/body\u003E\u003C\/html\u003E"}
