No foods consumed yet. Try adding some food to see the effects!

How it works (Basic Mode):

  • β€’ Press Play to start the simulation
  • β€’ Each second represents 15 minutes of real time
  • β€’ Blood glucose naturally rises over time (3 mg/dL per 15 min)
  • β€’ πŸ’‰ Bolus insulin lowers glucose over 5 hours (peaks at 1 hour, like rapid-acting)
  • β€’ 🍽️ Different foods have unique glucose impacts: candy spikes fast, pizza peaks slowly
  • β€’ Normal range: 70-120 mg/dL (fasting), up to 180 mg/dL (after meals)
  • β€’ ⚠️ Danger zones: ≀40 mg/dL (hypoglycemia) or β‰₯350 mg/dL (DKA) ends the game
