8a: 99 Problems (But Highs Ain’t One) — The 20 by 2 Rule

The Glucose Never Lies® Podcast ·

2025/09/06

This bonus Episode 8B is a family special — co-created with my daughter Grace.

When you’re above 10 mmol/L (180 mg/dL), just 20 minutes of activity can drop glucose by 2 mmol/L (≈40 mg/dL). That’s the “20 by 2” (or 20 by 40) rule. But, Grace said 8 years olds don’t want to hear 20 by 2! They want to hear it in a fun way! So, she made up a rap, with the
