So, does everyone on low carb get higher ketones and how do you lower them with out losing the low carb? Sorry if it's a silly question, I'm still a little confused

Hello! Sorry to hear your having a bad time! I had gd a couple of years ago. The reading you have said you have on adverage sound fine. I'm no professional tho! I don't know why they are so keen to keep your levels so low. 4.7 sounds kind too low to me. Have they suggested insulin? I was put...
