[QUOTE="kokhongw, post: 1511095, member: 277199"] I believe that recommendation needs to be taken in the context of high glucose. When glucose and insulin is low, ketones is often needed at a higher level as alternative fuel. Eg up to 8 mmol in the context of extended multiday fast for a relatively healthy individual. [URL]http://www.diabetes.co.uk/forum/blog-entry/extended-fasting.1605/[/URL] For type 2, a slice of bread would likely end the ketosis quickly as there would be over secretion of insulin. The danger for type 1 on a keto-like diet is that in the absence of insulin production/response it may easily cross into the danger zone if glucose is not being monitored closely and end up with a high glucose high ketones situation.
