I was under the impression that being in ketosis could be harmful to the organs of those with diabetes. Is this just a myth or were there medications that aided you?
- manu3000 9y agothe diet in the paper at 800cal/day is far from ketosis, so it seems one can enjoy the benefits of low cal without going to that extreme
- sjtgraham 9y agoKetosis has nothing to do with calories in. It's dictated by whether your body has glucose/glycogen available to run itself. If not, your cells start using fat directly and your liver produces ketones for the brain, which it uses with the remaining glucose in the blood.
- elhudy 9y agoThe person I was replying to specifically mentioned that they went on a keto diet.
- Sophistifunk 9y agoThat's ketoacidosis
