[QUOTE="Brunneria, post: 2294614, member: 41816"] This chart is an oldie but a goodie, showing how there is a significant difference between nutritional ketosis and DKA. Basically, you only get DKA if your blood glucose goes high while you have significant ketones (or there are other factors involved like other health conditions or certain medications). You haven't mentioned how high your blood glucose peaks, but if it is not too high, then you are extremely unlikely to develop DKA from the ketone levels you will get from nutritional ketosis. Please note that the scale along the bottom of the graph is not constant. There is a significant contraction between 5 and 10+ [IMG]https://files.ketodietapp.com/Blog/files/2014/03/ketosistix_graph.jpg[/IMG] [/QUOTE]
