Keto diet

I can tell my experience.I've been with low hydrates and ceto diet for 4 years.I do strength sport especially so with many hours of cardio I have no experience.For strength it does not affect me when training, I can train on an empty stomach and I am full of energy.I usually raise glucose but with a correction it is fixed.The moderate cardio for 30-40 min does not barely lower me but I have never made a long-lasting cardio.I also go to mountain routes sometimes fasting all day and without problem.Walking is very rare for me to lower glucose even if I am several hours in a row.
My analytics are always good.I have the cholesterol rather under the HDL but within the limit and triglycerides normally do not rise from 40. So I have seen the normal in keto is that the HDL raises you and lower triglycerides, in my case it was so but the variation wassmall.I guess there are also genetic issues because my sister happens to my sister.We have a similar profile eating similar.
Right now I am 8 months pregnant and I have followed the same diet that before and everything is perfect.I carry all the pregnancy with glycos of 4.9-5%, the child is going well, my analytics all within normal and in the echoes they have not seen any problem.I have measured ketones several times during pregnancy and usually give me positive but always below 3, normally below 1 so it would be a moderate ketosis.Sometimes I get 0 if as more HC in the form of fruit.During pregnancy I have controlled the HC and maximum fruit a lot as 2 times a day and especially strawberries and blueberries that have little HC.Of the rest as only half piece and many days not like none.Vegetables and vegetables of all kinds except those that have starch such as potato and then protein and fat quality of meat, fish, eggs, cheeses, Greek yogurt, nutThey are necessary for nothing and many people even feel bad.In my case the beans feel fatal.
I do not see any problem in eating like this, it has been our food throughout our evolution, we are perfectly adapted to it.And the ketones do not see a problem while they are in normal limits.The problem is ketoacidosis but for that there must be hyperglycemia and dehydration.
It is more babies while with exclusive breastfeeding they remain in ketosis and nobody discusses today that the best thing for a baby is breast milk.
It is hard for me not to eat fruit and that's why I don't always do keto but otherwise I carry it very well.It does not imply any problem maintaining this long -term diet.I make some exception from time to time for meals with family or friends and little else.

Congratulations Yesssica, which barbarian 4.9.It is all very similar except for pregnancy and why if I modify the cholesterol profile, the HDL duplicate it to me and the triglucerideThat the sport of Larg Distance will have to do.The strength training, I should do but it costs me
Thanks for your experience

I must say that I accessed the low diet in hydrates thanks to Dr. Bernstein when I was desperate because despite following the indications, the blood glucose only upMore than 20 years.My Beta of the pancreas have stopped producing insulin so my diabetes has become lada or type 1 and despite the low diet in hydrates and even intermittent fasting I must continue to inject basal insulin.My glucose is around 100 throughout the day included two hours after food.I usually take about 20 grams in hydrates a day from vegetables.
That said, I would have read Dr. Bernstein before instead of the bad advice of "official" medicine and there would be my type 2 diabetes in time.

I am very happy @yessica_a that the pregnancy goes so good!They are good news.

I continue with my regular sport every day and now I have dropped to about 7 portions.I can not do without the fruit (I love oranges, apples, strawberries, blueberries, etc.) and yogurt feels great.I can't do without him.I take a bio with 1.8% fat, I buy it in large jars of 400, and I usually take 200 gr for breakfast (a ration).In season I put strawberries (the season will soon begin) Bio also, and that is a great pleasure.And of course I take about 200 gr of vegetables at food and the same at dinner.

Of course, if I ski in the background I have to take 4 liquid rations made with isostar so that they enter fast.It is a very hard and demanding sport (in a hard climb you put yourself in 200 pulsations easily) and I already had a strong hypo at less than five degrees.Very unpleasant.In a three -hour session I usually take about three portions and survivors.In that case I have to increase rapid carbohydrate rations.I have no choice.

Greetings and you will give us news soon!

Hi Alex, I follow a keto diet from practically the first month that I was diagnosed, 3 years ago, at 38. I am much more than delighted, I am very facilitated by life because the control is much superior to carrying a diet with carbsand sugar, and once adapted keto desires a lot of metabolic flexibility which gives you even more autonomy and control.I at the giaul that Yesssica, I make strength and intermittent fasting, with the keto diet it is very normal to do fasts, because you satisfy you much more and the body does not ask you to eat so many times a day.I know that cholesterol and triglycerides have uploaded, but it doesn't worry me.If you want to read about this, I recommend that you follow @carlos_stro and David, also type 1 diabetic ( @informalos40), with 4.3 hem, on Instagram, they explain it very well in their Instagram profiles.In summary, I do not consider, at least today, deal with T1 diabetes and carry a diet that is not keto, the freedom of not having to be telling rations, of reducing the times that you are injected insulian to the day and notHaving the constant concern of having hypeglzemia, it compensates for me, a lot.I hope it helps you

A real keto diet is 30g of maximum HC per day the equivalent of a plate of vegetables and a fruit, or 3 glasses of milk.
A low HC diet is 50-70 grams and the Mediterranean diet that the endocrine sends you are 130 g of minimum HC.

The keto diet focuses on consumption of fats and proteins that become carbohydrates too, so that insulin is not used ..... it is not so true.In my case I made it 3 months and put the same insulin as carbohydrates, so I discovered that a 100g steak is 2 ud of insulin, a slice of salmon are 3 units of insulin, a handful of nuts are 2 units to theTime to have eaten them, .... (use Free since 2016) also did cardio sports, above all, I usually bike quite a bit and they went down just like with the other diet.
The intermittent fasting produces me with rebound.

My experience is that virtue is at the midpoint.Everyone must follow the diet that is most admonished to their lifestyle, but it is not true that the keto diet of freedom or that the Mediterranean removes it.With both we must use insulin and with both there are hypoglycemia and hyperglycemia.

@Ruthbia

Totally agree !

I have uploaded the HDL80, but also the LDL147: '(and I don't know how to eat so that the LDL improves, the doctor advises me the statins, and I tell him that the HDL is very good and compensates, in short, I amworried and I don't know what to eat ...

@Paloma The thing is that the doctor paute you a low fat diet or it is even time to take a pill for cholesterol.My mother and friends take them from thirty -few years.
There are times that the diet is not enough and we need help from some drug.

I would inform myself and make an analysis of the lipid profile.The LDL is normally calculated, to my calculated I came out in 131mg/l, already tall, analyze it and almost everything was LDL of large non -attegenic size.I just look for a payment cardiologist with the analysis of lipid fraction and I almost congratulate me, the measured LDL was much less than the 131mg calculating.That if that went to me, Low Carb or Ceto and Muuucjo sport diet.

With respect to the balance is virtue, I believe that in our case it is rather the less better (carbohydrates), covering that if our nutrient needs.
A hug

@Aler Where can I analyze the lipid profile, can I ask for it in any laboratory?

The point is that we reach the world in a state called cetosis and that at birth we forget, over time we forget it because every two and a half hours we eat glucose (carbohydrates) in each of our meals and we almost completely forget theFat substrate, when this is vital and is almost repudiated thought that it will end us or put us full of fat.Knowing that this substrate almost does not activate insulin.When reality, the only thing that leads to weight gain is the combination of high insulin doses, that is (HC) equal to fat, that is to be on a route called (mTor) of creation and anabólismo or storage.

The way of life keto, is a way to take real food to your mouth, a fat is essential for life, a protein is essential for life, a carbohydrate is not, you can live without them, today we have manyTestimonies of classmates, mine or doctors with DT1 such as Miguel Ambrona or David, like this lifestyle, leads you to not only very good blood glucose values, such as not having continuous hypoglycemia, in my case I already comment, many years, many yearsWith high doses of HC for professional sport and today in Keto with professional sport, I can only say that there is no color.

I think this mode helps a lot, that you have to be prepared too, listening to ketosis is just a nutritional status, not a pathology where you suffer if not the opposite, fasting creates ketosis, training creates ketosis, I only see and I hear that this isEpidemic of diabetes growth is not the result of chance, but of a great change that we are living as human beings, high doses of HC is to say glucose molecules, just what diabetics tolerate less or do not tolerate.

Great explanation David.That comes from a professional athlete is a guarantee.I wanted to ask you, measure your ketones to observe the degree of ketosis ?? Combine with fasting times?You have or hypoglycemia during training or competitions,

The measure of the ketonic bodies when I started this lifestyle made it, just out of curiosity, but I do not usually do it, the explanation for which I do not do it is because it is very difficult to enter ketoacidosis if your controls are very good, you are hydrated, and above all you put insulin, you are also always controlling your glycemia if you are in Normaglycemia or evil.You have to clarify that living in Keto is not to leave insulin, insulin is everything, "you have never left it"

On hypoglycemia, tell you that chemical hypoglycemia is not the same as insulin than another for a normal decrease in sports work.In my case of course, it goes down because it is your fuel that you are spending, but there is your liver that will regulate that glycemia and that the face rises.We are all concerned about this issue, if not as carbos as you hold this, right?
I have seen myself in this situation at the beginning when I started.In my case I have tried what works for me when training or competing, when you use fats as fuel and these ketoadapted eye you surprise how well you work, I've been with diabetes 1 for 48 years, I wish I would have known this before.

My conclusion is how you want to lower your blood cells, with insulin or without carbos, for my living better without carbosBut not those large doses, which ended up in hypos at all hours.

Thank you very much for your advice, especially for the damn ketoacidosis that has us all underwhelmed.

I believe that the 90% of those in this forum are not professional athletes, so eye with those values,

How interesting what you share.you're right!There are several studies that document that the HDL must be between 40 and 60 to be a cardioprotector and "fight" against LDL, but having it very high (above 60) is not necessarily good.

An HDL is considered high and I think it would be a good idea to the cardiologist with a lipid profile

I found this article in English that goes hand in hand with which you share, which talks about the risk of having high HDL.

hello.
I understand that I am going well, the last glycosiladI do a lot and quite demanding;The rest of the parameters within normality.I understand that I am still on a honeymoon, I follow a couple of American doctors who suffer from the same as us and control the issue very well, and I have learned from them since as I said the endocrine is quite improvable.
I am assaulted and that is why I ask for experiences for the forum, I am scared of issues such as possible hypoggen during sport, I understand that I am ketoadapted but still lowers me during exercise, especially in swimming.
Thanks in advance

Hello!.I have been reading, and having the HDL in 90 apparently is not good.Perhaps a cardiologist check would be a good idea to see what they tell you.

Look, I share this link: Link

There are very good medications that control LDL, HDL, triglyceride and lipid profile in general.What I do is a lipid profile every 6 months to see how I go, or better, I do a battery of studies that include blood chemistry, blood biometry, general urine exam and add thyroid profile, ultrasensitive and hemoglobin C -reactive proteinglucosiladaI take this to my cardiologist and together with an electro, I realize how food, medication and exercise improve me.

It's amazing how exercise helps.I started walking 10 min, now on the way to quick step 45 min daily, without fail.It has helped me a lot since pandemic has us very sedentary.

Ultrasensible C -reactive protein and atherogenic index are excellent to have a cardiovascular health indicator.
