Yea, I know that, question was relative to diabetics.

Im on the pump actually, so I do carb-to-insulin ratios as well. But my question was more about the ketoacidosis... for so many years Ive heard 'ketoacidosis bad bad bad', how do you control your body to not get to that point (an extreme level of ketosis); whats the balance?
