What to do if i have diabetes and i'm on the keto diet. what to do if i have moderate ketones (80) in my urine according to my ketostix. my sugar is fine. will i be okay?

Keto diet: There is a difference between ketones and ketoacidosis. A ketogenic diet can be very helpful in decreasing your blood sugar. It is a matter of using fat to fuel your body more so than carbs. Dr. David Perlmutter's book Grain Brain is my favorite resource for teaching my patients how to eat a ketogenic diet.
