Dietary Ketosis has nothing to do with BG until your liver runs out of stored glucagon it can continue to raise BG (ie 8 - 10 hour high when fasting) how low are you going on the carbs? you can be in Ketosis with high BG. Ketosis means your body is using ketones for fuel instead of glucose. Diabetesforum(dot)com has many people doing diatery Ketosis.
Your baby will be fine. Just realize that your baby is going to rob you of nutrients regardless. If you don't eat sufficient carbs then you will start suffering the consequences like more cavities, lack of calcium etc. This is what my doctor told me. I have ketosis by the way.
Say you were about 16, anemic, and borderline diabetic. Would the Ketosis diet do any good in this situation? Please help and give detailed answers please, and if you know anything that would make following the diet easier, I would be much obliged in hearing it.
You will also get weak from carb depletion (this passes in about 6 days)
Once you reach Ketosis your body will start using fat for fuel rather than carbs (remember were not eating carbs anymore) so the liver must make Ketones to release fat for fuel.
The body wants it's fuel so deny it carbs and it will feed off of fat when it has to.
You need to understand that our bodies hate us. They actually want us to stay fat.
It takes several days or more to get back into ketosis after even one day of too many carbs. So eating too many carbs once a week could keep you almost totally out of ketosis.
Gimel is right. It is worth getting tested for low thyroid.
many people find that they need their Free T4 in the MIDDLE of the range AND (that means in addition to) they need their Free T3 to be in the UPPER 1/3 of the range.
Hi all,
I started Atkins in early January '09. I have done Atkins before back in 2004/05 and lost 60lbs and got down to 160lbs which was pretty good for my height about 5'6". It took me about 7 months to get to my target weight. I was extremely happy and felt great. Got married in 2006 and well...kinda gained it all back and then some...so it goes huh. I hate I did that but I truly love food and before I knew it...all the weight was back on again.
Yout vet IS right, high protein diets will harm you cat's kidneys...but the thing I don't get, you cat is diabetic or you're just scared that diets with carbs will cause diabetes?? Because it's not carbs that cause diabetes, it's a really high sugar diet that causes it in animals, commercial food have just the carbs and proteins and fats that your cat need (the good ones, of course there are some brands that can damage pets).
Ketotic hypoglycemia more commonly refers to a common but mysterious "disease" of recurrent hypoglycemic symptoms with ketosis in young children. The cause and the homogeneity of the condition remain uncertain,[1] but a characteristic presentation, precipitating factors, diagnostic test results, treatment, and natural history can be described. It remains one of the more common causes of hypoglycemia in the age range.
When are you seeing " 400+count of sugar"? If at fasting, levels this high usually warrants the addition of insulin. At other times it is always in the best interest of the patient to consult with their primary care physician regarding adjustments/additions to existing medications. Keep in mind levels this high are dangerous to your well being.
Towards the end of February 2017 I had ketones in my urine and was in ketosis. I was excercisin religiously and watching my carb intake.i was eating between 100 to 150gms of carbs. I was not on a ketogenic diet. After that visit i have been extremely ill. Nausea, vomiting, diarrhea. blood sugar dropping rapidly when after exercise. My doctor said it could be the phentermine but that the metformin xr could also be reacting to the phentermine.
This may be ketosis or in your case post exercise ketosis. You smell like acetone in a ketosis state . This is as close as i can find to nail polish; acetone is an ingredient in nail polish remover.
The reason for ketosis is due to not enough glucose and so the body has to break down stored fat and convert it into energy instead. Metabolizing fat raises blood ketone levels therefore leading to ketosis.
I currently eat a diet comprised of 30-35% protein, 45-50% carbs, and less than 20% fats. All toll, I consumer 2,800 calories a day to maintain my current weight of 108 lbs. at 5'4" (I've always been on the thin side, I'm a competitive Irish Dancer and Distance Runner).
I want to start eating more fats and less protein... because it's very difficult to eat THAT much protein on a daily basis!
Actualy there are not many studys and research on ketosis. Ketosis was used to threat epylepsy. Yes they had some problem with kidney stones but they were for years long on ketosis (extreme hardcore ketosis) . Also there are more types of keto dieting some are healthy some not, more info you can get with lyle mcdonald ketogenic diet, there you have everything about ketosis, every research and all pros an cons about ketosis ever (its free you can download it) .
Playing for 3 hours non-stop is a little excessive and can cause excessive sweating caused by ketosis if you have a fast metabolism like me (not eating enough carbs) and that isn't a good thing. If you are healthy, there really shouldn't be a terrible smell to your sweat. The smells are toxins being released, which is good, but if you sweat regularily, keep well hydrated and eat properly, you shouldn't smell bad when you sweat at all.
A low carb diet causes the body to go into Ketosis whereby the body uses its fat as a source of energy. Also when you are in ketosis your body feels less hungry. This all sounds good except that this can also lead to kidney issues (even failure), osteoporosis, and kidney stones.
Stay balanced and control your calories and you'll lose weight and avoid the side effects.
Good luck.
Low carb diets have been shown to be unhealthy long-term. Veggies are all carbs. Fruits are carbs. Complex carbs such as whole grains are the best source of long-term energy. Too much protein, especially animal protein, can cause kidney problems and is linked to a higher rate of cardiovascular disease.
After about 2 weeks of induction (less than 20 carbs per day) I began to slowly reintroduce foods back into my diet and the rash began to fade away. This last month I decided that I would try the whole thing again and stick with it more carefully this time. I developed the same rash again in the exact same places. Its a very itchy rash that at first looked like hives and bright red bumps, then like brown spots under my skin. It leaves ugly brown spots everywhere.
re substituting protein for simple carbs when you eat yoghurt instead of, say, white bread, and that helps with the weight loss, but if you eat yoghurt high in sugar you're just adding back in the simple carbs, which turn to fat quickly if not immediately burned off.
You need carbs to live. Look up how carbs help you and how they don't. Make sure you are taking prenatals as well!
Carbs raise BG so restricting carbs will help BG.
when you say 6 units I assume you mean 6 exchanges which is 90 gr of carbs. If you take 250 mg at each meal that is 750 mg a day, the limit is 2400mg a day so you have room to go up on the Met.
It can take 6 to 8 weeks for met to become fully effective.
How do you eat less carbs for breakfast? I can't seem to get away from bad carbs at breakfast.
