[QUOTE="tim2000s, post: 2119123, member: 30007"] The issue is that a capillary glucose test of lower than 3.5mmol/l is typically representative of a lower arterial glucose level, which can mean cognitive dysfunction. As the studies on people eating a keto diet have very small numbers, they aren't powered enough to drive any form or regulatory decision, and greater study would be required. While the papers shown here suggest ketones provide fuel to the brain in place of glucose (and my experience of ketogenic diet supports this view), they have to consider that your low glucose levels are too low.
