Hi, I have been following a Keto diet for three weeks as a Type 1 Diabetic Vegan. I just tested my keytone level with Ketosticks sticks and it measured 4 (see attached, its fourth colour from the left). I am confused as to when it is dangerous for me to do this. I have lost 4kg since I...

I made sure to do this just once I found something that would activate the yeast and rise the dough without it having to be sugar/honey. It worked with yacon Syrup, which technically is 24g sugar (fructose) but having inulin it also has a GI of 1 so seemed like the best option with the least...

It’s suddenly dawned on me, MyFitnessPal is an American site. So it adds fibre into the carb count - whereas British nutritional values are separated. So all the values it gives, we need to subtract the fibre from the carb value to get actual carbs. So for the last two months I’ve been having...

Hi, recently i have been trying to change from keto diet to lchf due to weight loss issues and I am feeling my feet and hands numb very soon . Just in minutes, does this have anything to do with Diabetic neuropathy. My vision is also blurred even more than before.

Dr Troy Stapleton is a T1 radiologist and cyclist. In this lecture he describes how much he hated having hypos, and how his bg levels have flattened since he started eating a keto diet, with hypos rare and no need to consume carbs on long bike rides. He also recounts similar stories from other...

Hi, I am T2D 6ft tall and weighed around 77 since 2 years . In past 2 months i have started off with LCHF then went on to KETO in combination with 23:1 IF . That did not suit me so settled for KETO since 5 weeks and my weight has gone down to 69 and my blood glucose numbers are absolutely...

Sorry if this video has been posted before but I found it a fascinating intro into the possibilities that a ketogenic diet could aid as an adjunct to the treatment of cancers. Interest stuff. Edited to add. The video is just 24 minutes.

Good morning team Quick question on a type of DKA: does anyone have any information, experience or reliable sources of information on Euglycemic DKA? (which is mentioned on the DKA page of diabetes.co.uk, but I can't seem to find any substantial info online on this) As a way of background, I...

Broad and basic questions I have at my personal level of understanding. Is ketosis a result of a strict LCHF diet? Does one necessarily lead to the other, is there an overlap? I know the difference between nutritional ketosis and ketoacidosis. I made the mistake of buying keto sticks and I am...

Hi guys I got a few questions. I been on allot of medication for past few months especially antibiotics. My gut health got extremely bad. I went on the keto diet. I been having lots of blurred vision, feeling fatigued, headache, dry mouth, feeling thirsty. Today I fainted my blood glucose level...

Hi everyone, Does anybody has hypo problem on a keto diet? I got diagnosed with T1 3 months ago. And started keto diet around 1 month, everything went well. I used really low dose of insulin(2 or 3 units humalog per day, night time insulin 7 unit) And most of the time I can keep my BS between...

Hi folks, My wife is insulin resistant and became pre-diabetic two years ago. It was a big shock and since then, we have both become a lot more in touch with nutrition and food. We've been able to significantly transform our health through food. Having had a good browse around this forum...

Hello guys I just thought I would say a big Hi! Here to learn and share.. Main interests are the ketogenic diet and diabetes. Please say hi

I have been doing low GI for 20 years then 2 years ago diagnosed Lada Type 1. Not on insulin yet as A1c is 47 but am thinking about it. I have read Dr Bernstein’s book and lowered carb – so far its between 40g and 120g per day. I believe that the UK government recommends a minimum of 120g carb...

http://type1keto.com/ "a blog about testing the limits of diabetes. Lemming Test-Pilot is the alter ego of a medical doctor who themselves have type 1 diabetes." the blog is about the T1 blogger doing 12 half marathons in... 12 months :o It's a fascinating read!!!

Hi I'm 19 and newly diagnosed with type 1 diabetes. I have been eating a low carb diet which has allowed me to not bolus as I'm still in the honeymoon period. However I have been experiencing muscle cramps in my calves at night and muscle weakness in my arms and legs. Also a stuffyness in my...
