Not to be a wet blanket but .... ketones, in excess, are fatal.
Ketoacidosis, a potential result of prolonged high blood sugar, is
fatal.
Ketones are a normal byproduct of burning fat. It's actually a good
measure to see if that diet is really working!! But in excess, can
result in what is known as "ketoacidosis" in which the body essentially
poisons itself to death.
I would imagine that a "diet" like this would require *CAREFUL*
scrutiny in the amount of ketones. ... this is also the reason that
Drs caution again and again, to not loose weight too fast - the body
doesn't have time to flush out all the keytones.
Be careful.
