[QUOTE="Guzzler, post: 2001806, member: 408573"] I have said this before. People have to take more care with testing bg and ketones when changing their diet when the object is to reduce medications/insulin, however in all my reading and viewing of lectures on Type 2 Diabetes the only time that Keto [I]could[/I] be considered dangerous is if the person is taking SGLT2 inhibitors. This class of drug has a heightened risk of DKA alone so embarking on a ketogenic way of eating obviously raises that risk further but the diet itself promotes nutritional ketosis which some HCPs simply do not care to fully investigate.
