    Ketosis question

    How long should one be in Ketosis? Is it healthy to be in Ketosis for a long period of time?

    You should get and read a copy of DANDR for more information on ketosis but:

    Do not get ketosis confused with ketoacidosis (which is dangerous). Ketosis is completely benign. It is caused when your body breaks down fat and it is completely natural.

    Ketoacidosis is associated most often with diabetics. It is caused by insulin-deficiency and out of control blood sugar levels.

    They are basically total opposites. Ketosis is perfectly safe.

      How do you detect if you are ketoacidosis? Do the ketosis strips have any play in this?
