[QUOTE="Wayward Blood, post: 2294522, member: 520440"] DKA is extremely dangerous, but you are NOT at risk of this on a low carbohydrate diet. You will get something else called ketosis, which is perfectly healthy. Ketones and blood sugar levels have an important thing in common: both are great for providing energy, but toxic at very high levels. You'll only get dangerously high ketone levels if your blood sugar levels have spiked massively, so a low carbohydrate diet will actually protect you against DKA. Google Dr Richard Bernstein and search YouTube for Dr Troy Stapleton for some amazing information about low carbohydrate diets, and their safety and effectiveness. [/QUOTE]
