[QUOTE="kitedoc, post: 2079107, member: 468714"] I find i never get above 1.5 mmol/l of ketones but then i do not deliberately fast. If my BSLs were to get above 13 mmol/l and ketones above 4 mmol/l I would be acting quickly to get the BSls down or getting to hospital. There is also a very rare condition called euglycaemia ketoacidosis where 2 people have been reported (and others said anecdotally) to have had acidosis at BSL less than 13 mmol/l. Illness + dehydration + insufficient insulin seemed to be the triggers so I always try to keep well hydrated and insulin at appropriate levels. I also keep up salt and take some magnesium supps as with lower insulin levels salt and magnesium seem to be lost more easily (see dietdoctor.com). [/QUOTE]
