Target follow-up type
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
The study duration will be 5 days. On day one, the participant will be connected to a continuous blood glucose monitor sensor (CGMS), which will remain in place for the 5 day duration of the study. The CGM sensor is a small plastic catheter inserted just beneath the skin. For 5 consecutive days the participant will be instructed to eat a standard evening meal with consistent amounts and type of carbohydrate. Usual insulin doses will be given prior to the meal for the carbohydrate content. This will be followed by a test meal (a protein drink) to be consumed 4 hours later. The participant will then fast overnight. The blood glucose level (BGL) will be observed via the CGM every hour for an 8 hour period (overnight). The participant will then test their BGL each morning of the study prior to breakfast with a fingerprick blood test, as per usual diabetes management for individuals with type 1 diabetes mellitus.
Intervention code [1] 286576 0
Not applicable
Comparator / control treatment
The participants postprandial blood glucose level will be compared 8 hours following a meal containing protein with the postparandial BGL following a non protein meal.
The first day of the study period the participant will not cosume a protein meal. Each day for the following 4 days they will be given a test meal containing various amounts of protein.
Control group
Uncontrolled

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 288930 0
The primary outcome will be measured using the data from the CGM trace.
The primary outcome will be the glucose excursion at 8 hours after the test meal of protein.
Timepoint [1] 288930 0
8 hours after the test meal is consumed
Secondary outcome [1] 301377 0
The rate of maximal BGL increase every hour up to 8 hours post prandial.
Timepoint [1] 301377 0
8 hours after the test meal is consumed
Secondary outcome [2] 301378 0
