How much is six units of insulin for a diabetic?

It depends on the type of insulin and also the diabetic. It varies greatly on long acting insulin and short acting insulin. For short acting insulin you need to find out the insulin to carbohydrate ratio for a diabetic first. Using a sliding scale you need to determine the blood sugar of the diabetic and also how many carbohydrates they have ingested. Whether or not it is a Type 1 or Type 2 diabetic will also affect the outcome. For an average sized adult with type 1 diabetes, they would need to consume approximately 60-85 grams of carbohydrates, but again it depends on the individual greatly.

If you are type-1 diabetic is the amount of carbs you should eat per day?

The answer is it depends - it depends on your dietary restrictions, it depends on how many calories you should be eating per day, and it also depends if you're a man or a woman. On average a woman should consume 45-60 grams of carbohydrates per meal and a man should consume 60-75 grams per meal. Snacks should contain between 15-30 grams of carbohydrates. All carbohydrates need to be accounted for so you can balance your insulin injections to your carbohydrate intake. If you aren't quite sure, this is something you should follow up with your doctor or certified diabetes educator to understand more about.
