Aid for ketogenic diets?



Really? Yes, I know that it's the "amount of ketones" in your blood
that determines if you are in ketosis, but to call your blood sugar
level "utterly irrelevant" is a gross overstatement. As if there's no
correlation.

Learn to attribute.

Then somebody may take you seriously.

No, it's not an overstatement, gross or otherwise.

As if. I know people who have very high blood sugar levels AND high blood
ketone levels. So?

A successful ketogenic diet requires absolutely no knowledge whatsoever of
your blood sugar level. Zero. Naught. Nada. None. Zip. Squat.

So they are not the norm.

In theory, no. In practice, yes, for most people.

And this has what, exactly, to do with the successful management of a
ketogenic diet?

In theory, no. In practice, no.

I'm sorry if this is not the reality that you wish to have exist, but human
anatomy and physiology really doesn't care about your wishes.

Knowledge of your blood sugar level is utterly, totally, irrelevant to the
management of a successful ketogenic diet. In practice. For everybody.

In fact, if you have a reasonable definition of "successful", even
knowing your ketone level doesn't matter. (Further, per Lyle, your
ketone level itself doesn't matter all that much, either.)

Your facts are, indeed, facts.

And timely. Nice to see your local bending of spacetime has been resolved.

Duh.
It's called Diabetic Ketoacidosis.

The ketone production in a diabetis is not BDK.
Different mechanism.

BS.

Do more research please?

I've been successfully staying in BDK now since mid-January.
My average blood glucose is around 90.

I don't spike 'cause I know how to follow a LC diet.

In BDK, blood glucose levels are irrelevant.
