Basal Math Walkthrough
Episode 820 Methodology
Disclaimer: This tool is for educational purposes only. The results are a mathematically calculated starting point. Actual insulin needs vary significantly. Always consult your endocrinologist.
1
Weight
Medical insulin calculations are standardized in kilograms. We divide lbs by 2.2 to get the metric weight.
Medical Conversion (Kg)
2
Total Daily Dose (TDD)
TDD = Weight (kg) × Factor. This predicts the total amount of insulin (both Basal and Food) your body needs in a 24-hour period.
Select a profile factor. This multiplier determines your total daily insulin needs based on physiology.
Who fits where?
- High Sensitivity: Athletes, Active Kids, Lean T1Ds.
- Standard: Most adults, pre-teen children.
- Resistant: Sedentary adults, illness, high stress.
- Highly Resistant: Puberty (Teens), steroids, growth hormones.
Est. Total Daily Dose (TDD)

Calculate Basal Rate
Starting Basal is 50% of the Total Daily Dose. This covers your background needs, while the other 50% is reserved for food boluses.
Standard starting methodology assumes a 50/50 split. 50% of the TDD is for background (Basal) insulin, and 50% is for food (Bolus).
Daily Basal Total
TDD × 0.50
Pump Setting
Hourly Rate
Daily ÷ 24 hrs
Ghost Lows
If Basal is set too low, your meal bolus will try to "fill the hole" of the missing basal. This makes carb ratios look wrong.
Testing is Mandatory
This math only provides a starting line. You must perform basal testing (fasting periods) to verify if blood sugar holds steady.

Suggested Strategy
Important: This amount is separate from your immediate bolus for carbohydrates. It should be delivered as an extended (square) wave or a separate delayed injection.
