Today, I’m talking about total carbs vs net carbs – which one should you count?
Carb counts are sometimes difficult to bolus the right amount for, so also on low carb/keto. Especially since food manufacturers love to state “net carbs” instead of total carbs on their products…
Find out more about what I think of this, and, more importantly, what you should do, here:

This is one hot potato (ha!) in the diabetes world: ketosis and DKA.
How do you get DKA, diabetic ketoacidosis? what is it, what’s dangerous? And ketosis, what is that? How do you get there, and is it dangerous, even for a Type 1 Diabetic? Check out the latest episode of Type 1 Thursday to find out:
Andrew Koutnik is a fantastic researcher and T1D, who has summarized the difference between DKA and ketosis in a handy chart:
Andrew writes:
Ketoacidosis involves dangerously low or absent insulin which causes glucose and ketone levels to rise. A VLCKD has low to moderate insulin which is sufficient to control blood glucose in the homeostatic range while allow low to moderate elevations in ketone bodies. This pathological (ketoacidosis) versus nonpathological (VLCKD) physiological states are vastly different.
Andrew Koutnik, “Part 3: Can you Achieve Optimal Blood Glucose Control as a Type-1 Diabetic?”
I highly suggest you read the rest of Andrew’s blog post here, there is a magnitude of great information in there!
