Why inject into fat?
Absorption: Insulin is absorbed more consistently and slowly when injected into fat.
Pain: Fat has fewer nerve endings, so injections are usually less painful.
Comfort: The fatty layer is on top of muscle, so injections are more comfortable.
Where to inject insulin?
Abdomen: The most common injection site because it’s easy to access and absorbs insulin the fastest.
The finger pokes are the worst bit though
