[QUOTE="shedges, post: 648358, member: 10554"] Hi Saz, My understanding is that raised ketones is not a problem as long as your blood sugar levels are find. It means that the insulin is continuing to do its job and you're not putting yourself at risk. When blood sugar rises and rises, and ketones are present that's when you go into DKA, which rings alarm bells with all nurses... basically means you're going to end up in hospital. Hope that helps until someone more experienced in LCHF comes along. Sam. [/QUOTE]
