[QUOTE="ert, post: 2120483, member: 504712"] DAFNE doesn't agree with keto diets because of the increased levels of ketones you will run as a type 1. It's the risk is DKA, which is life-threatening. If you constantly blood sugars above 13 mmol/l, or if you are ill with normal blood sugars or higher blood sugars, check for blood ketones. With high blood sugars, if blood ketones are between 1.5 - 3 mmol/l then you should take 10% of your daily insulin every 2 hours with non-carb liquids. If your blood ketones are above 3 mmol/l then take 20% of your daily insulin every 2 hours with non-carb liquids and contact your diabetes team. [/QUOTE]
