Does anyone have any experience with non food things that cause spikes? I'm specifically wondering about paracetamol, ibuprofen and mouthwash. I'm also wondering if these things can bring the body out of ketosis? Thanks.
Yeah I took the pain killers and they're was no issue. Haven't tried the mouthwash yet. The keto breath is a problem.If you're needing painkillers, it is more likely the pain that raises blood glucose than the tablets. I never noticed a rise and i've used both, frequently. As for mouth wash, I dunno.... If it tastes sweet, it might. (Your pancreas pre-emptively pumping out insulin you don't need, and your liver over-correcting for it with a glucose dump).
Xylitol chewing gum.Yeah I took the pain killers and they're was no issue. Haven't tried the mouthwash yet. The keto breath is a problem.
