Which macronutrient primarily affects postprandial glycemic response in individuals with type 1 diabetes?
That's not correct.
In individuals with type 1 diabetes, carbohydrate is the primary macronutrient affecting postprandial glycemic response. The amount and type of carbohydrate, along with protein and fat content, influence the glycemic index of a meal and thus postprandial glucose levels.
