    Why Do I Have Glucose Spikes?

    I think it was natural correction, I was not given insulin. I could maybe buy myself a FreeStyle Libre and just walk for a month with it and chart every day and see what happens. In my experience, I would see a flat curve between 4 and 6.5 mmol/l most of the time on keto. But you never know...
