[QUOTE="bulkbiker, post: 1330578, member: 219467"] Definitely possible does not however mean definitely.. if you are really following a strict keto diet then I would suggest the pills may not be essential..however that is up to you and your doctor (who probably won't know what a ketogenic diet entails). Do you know why you are taking the statins? Have you had a cardiac event? There is a lot of debate as to whether they are beneficial. It may well be worth putting "statins" in the search box here and having a read. What you put into your body is your choice remember. Re the hypoglycemia there was apparently some unpublished research done in the 1970's where some subjects who were on a ketogenic diet were given insulin. Their blood sugar went down to 1.5 mol/l without ill effects. However this was deemed to be endangering their lives (although it seems it didn't) so was unpublished. That's according to Dr Stephen Finney one of the low carb gurus. [/QUOTE]
