C-peptide is a blood exam usually applied for type 2 diabetics to help doctors to decide if they need to add insulin injections for the therapy treatment(1).
Ketogenic diet as type 2 diabetes therapy has helped me so much that I need to tell a doctor I am a T2 patient because blood tests do not show the disease (HbA1c, insulin, and fast blood glucose).
I am at T2 since 2011, but measuring my C-peptide, I've read a surprising 3,44 ng/mL(2) which is by far a healthy number. T2 patients who needs to add insulin injections in their treatment usually show numbers below 0,5 ng/ml.
My question is: if I did not made mistakes in my statements, do you know, nice people if it is possible to recover C-peptide numbers during a ketogenic therapy?
(1) please, feel free to correct me if my statement is wrong
(2) sorry, I don't know european units for this measurement
