It was difficult to know how expensive this would be. Of course Rock knew his medical insurance would cover it, but he was nevertheless curious.
An entire floor of a large downtown office building was reserved to help insulin-dependent diabetics maintain healthy blood glucose levels. There were at least a hundred employees on the floor to monitor how their customers behaved and what they consumed. Everything was measured precisely. Rock took his usual morning dose of long-term insulin and was fed half a cup of walnuts and then asked to jog for two minutes. He would continue to exercise and to eat small measures of food throughout the day and to have his blood-glucose level checked at least hourly.
Rock knew he was hungry and hypoglycemic and that this was all unnecessary.
