to the editor: It is believed that low-carbohydrate diets work best in reducing weight when producing ketosis.1 We report on a 51-year-old white woman who does not have diabetes but had ketoacidosis while consu
than 0.1 U/kg/hr as advocated for diabetic ketoacidosis. Most now advocate that the initial insulin loading dose be omitted. During the recovery period, therapy with insulin and diet and monitoring of the patient are as described for patients recovering from diabetic ketoacidosis (seeTable 19-9)...

Patients on ketogenic (low-carbohydrate diet) should not be placed on SGLT2 inhibitors. The most common cause of DKA is patient noncompliance with insulin. Other causes are infection, acute vascular event, new diagnosis of type 1 diabetes, inadequate insulin therapy in the hospital, and ...
However, when a person purposely eats a low carbohydrate diet and has a controlled and regulated production of ketone bodies, it’s completely harmless. During nutritional ketosis, a person’s blood pH levels remain within the normal limits (6). Here’s a good graphic comparison between ketosis...
We believe that our patient benefited from the SGLT2 inhibitor and that its omission may have contributed to a near-immediate second DKA. Whether a low-carbohydrate diet could have further slowed the rate of glucose rising is worthy of consideration, especially since it led to a successful ...
Type 1 diabetics can develop diabetic ketoacidosis if they don't inject enough insulin, and this usually occurs during a period of illness or injury, or it may be the precipitating condition which results in the diagnosis of their type 1 diabetic disease....
Ketoacidosis is a metabolic acidosis caused by increased production of ketone bodies, which are compounds derived from fatty acids and used as an alternative fuel source by cells during starvation.Answer and Explanation: Non-diabetic ketoacidosis is a type of metabolic acidosis which occurs in people...
It is necessary to pay attention not only to use a SGLT2 inhibitor in the patients during a low-carbohydrate diet but also to start a low-carbohydrate diet in the patients treated with a SGLT2 inhibitor because of a high risk for developing ketoacidosis. This article is protected by ...
