Answers:
In theory, novolog and humalog are pretty much identical in effect, so the 70/30s based on them should be near-identical as well.
In practice, most people who have switched between novolog and humalog have reported that one affects them much more strongly than the other.
I wouldn't advise switching without consulting your doctor or endocrinologist.

That is a question for an endocrinologist.
Even a GP doesn't have the right training to answer it.
My husband used GP's for the first ten years he had diabetes, and his blood sugars were all over the place.

Bolus or mealtime insulins include regular insulin (Novolin R, Humulin R) and the analogue forms aspart (NovoLog) and lispro (Humalog).
