Diabetic In Ketosis?

[mrs.petethecat 62]

Can someone please tell me why a Type II Diabetic should not be in ketosis? I have done the Atkins diet many times before being sleeved. It was successful short term but it was always difficult to get into ketosis. I have seen several posts that say diabetics should not get into ketosis because it is dangerous. Can anyone explain. Thanks for your response.

I think people are referring to diabetic ketosis vs a more benign form of dietary ketosis. I think someone who is diabetic could go into the benign form but not the medically dangerous type.

This is a question for your Endocrinologist! Diabetes is too serious to suggest anything else! Best of luck and tell us what you discover!
