[QUOTE="AlexJD, post: 1690988, member: 428779"] From you saying « first Hba1c » post diagnosis, I take that you were diagnosed recently with T1. Bear in mind that a honeymoon period might kick in, and thus that you might still be producing a tiny bit of insulin, which might be near enough for someone on a keto diet. I am by no means advocating not injecting, I’m just saying keto might take you very low in injection levels: I went keto a month after my diagnosis and ended up on no fast acting insulin for days and virtually no basal at all either for days - very probably thanks to some insulin still being produced by my body. My hba1c went from 116 on diagnosis to 45 three months after and after joyfully going full keto. I’m not saying that’s a one size fit all solution, and normal low carb is absolutely a very good option as well, but I agree with you that it really helps with bg control! [/QUOTE]
