[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1496292, member: 355878"] The ketones are what are seen when fat is being broken down, and in association with lower blood glucose they are perfectly normal and a good sign that everything is going in the right direction. They are excellent fuel too. The brain does particularly well when it has ketones for its energy needs. I do wonder at the advice given - toast, jam, rice and biscuits are exactly what a type 2 diabetic should not eat, - it being a problem with dealing with carbohydrates. The usual advice given when such misinformation is being pushed is 'smile, nod, ignore' but we can only hope for better training in future. [/QUOTE]
