>> Insulin from animal sources is not as good as bioengineered insulin

> Respectfully, we may not actually know that.

We really do. While it's possible that animal sourced insulin may be better for your body long term (doubtful), bioengineered insulin is FAR superior in every noticeable way. Just the fact that you don't need to take it an hour ahead of time and make sure that you eat an mount that matches how much insulin you took is a huge benefit.
