Talking to your doctor about implementing a #ketogenicdiet to treat your mental illness or neurological disorder? Are they under the impression #ketosis is a medical emergency?
You're going to have to educate them! #neurotwitter #mentalillness #brainhealthmatters
The confusion arises as #Physicians are taught about #Ketoacidosis, a severe condition in people with Type 1 Diabetes or alcoholism. The determining factors for Ketoacidosis are either a lack of insulin with high blood sugar & ketone levels above 5mmol/L or severe malnutrition.
But being in Nutritional #Ketosis is normal & healthy, and should not be equated with Ketoacidosis. It's important to educate ourselves & our #physicians about the difference between these two concepts.
