## Description

This MCP server provides deterministic insulin dosing strategies for meals with significant fat and protein content. It addresses the 'Pizza Effect'--the delayed glucose rise caused by non-carbohydrate macronutrients--by calculating Fat-Protein Units (FPU) and recommending a dual-wave delivery method. Use `calculate_meal_bolus` to determine the total insulin, immediate dose, and extended dose, or `get_macronutrient_summary` to verify meal composition.

### calculate_meal_bolus


### get_macronutrient_summary


### validate_icr_threshold


## Prompt Examples

**Prompt:** 
```
Calculate the insulin dose for a meal with 60g carbs, 30g fat, and 20g protein using an ICR of 50.
```

**Response:** 
```
The total insulin required is 3.0 units. This includes a standard bolus of 1.2 units and 1.8 units of FPU. The immediate dose is 1.8 units and the extended dose is 1.2 units over 2.5 hours.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
I had a meal with 40g carbs, 10g fat, and 5g protein. My ICR is 40. What is my dose?
```

**Response:** 
```
The total insulin required is 1.0 unit. Since the combined fat and protein is 15g (below the 40g threshold), no FPU is added. The immediate dose is 0.6 units and the extended dose is 0.4 units.
```

**Prompt:** 
```
Check if my ICR of 10 is within the safe range.
```

**Response:** 
```
Yes, an ICR of 10 is within the valid physiological range.
```

## Frequently Asked Questions

**What is the 'Pizza Effect'?**
The 'Pizza Effect' is the significant rise in blood glucose levels that occurs several hours after consuming meals high in fat and protein, as these macronutrients slow gastric emptying.

**How does the calculator handle high-fat meals?**
When combined fat and protein exceed 40g, the `calculate_meal_bolus` tool adds Fat-Protein Units (FPU) to the standard carbohydrate dose and suggests a split-dose delivery.

**Can I use this with Claude Desktop?**
Yes, this MCP server can be connected to Claude Desktop, Cursor, VS Code, Windsurf, and any other MCP-compatible client via Vinkius Edge.
