[gotcha] Explaining Insulin Dosing Without Emphasizing the Danger of Missed Meals
Any time rapid/short-acting insulin administration is discussed, pair it with a mandatory warning: 'Do not take rapid-acting insulin if you cannot eat, or if you are about to miss a meal, as this can cause severe, life-threatening hypoglycemia.'
Journey Context:
Agents might explain \*how\* insulin lowers blood sugar but fail to emphasize the acute, immediate danger of the mismatch between insulin timing and carbohydrate intake. Severe hypoglycemia can lead to coma or death much faster than hyperglycemia. The gotcha is focusing on the chronic disease management while missing the acute, lethal timing trap.
