Diabetic and Ketosis

Here is a huge study (Whitehall Study) to confirm what we just shared with you . . . There were over 38,000 people studied for over a 10 year period.
The top line is the people who developed diabetes, you can see how the line is slowly (over a 13 year period) going up and up ( fatty liver then pre-diabetic) over time until their pancreas can't keep up with insulin production. Because of the unused carbs and proteins (sugar) being consumed. And then there pancreas just can't keep up and their sugar (glucose) just rockets sky high. Which is when the diagnosis of diabetes is made.
You are probably thinking its a good thing I won’t become a diabetic because I don't constantly eat carbs consistently or excessive proteins
 . . .right?
Well, negative, if you are not Keto (burning your own fat for energy in the form of ketones) then you are in glycolysis (burning sugar for fuel). 
FUN FACT: do you know what the number one selling item in practically any grocery store is? The 5 pound bag of white sugar. And it would make sense because the average you (American) consumes over 150 lbs of the white death (sugar) a year!
You see, even if you eat a small amount of carbs or you our on a low carb diet. You will still be out of keto and into glycolysis (using sugar for fuel)        And you are well on your way to having a fatty liver, then becoming pre diabetic and finally a diabetic because you are constantly eating sugar. You see when you eat carbs . . . you eat sugars. Because you can not use any type of carb for fuel . . . Carbs must be broken down into glucose (sugar) and stored as glycogen (chains of sugars) before you can use them for fuel. 
What about proteins like in the Paleo, Adkins or the Carnivore diet? Well unfortunately you can not use protein for fuel either . . . proteins must be broken down into amino acids which can and do form sugars .  Especially if you eat more than adequate amounts of proteins. And you might be asking. . . just what is an adequate amount of protein?
Great question and the simple answer is  not more than 15% of your daily macronutrient intake. Macronutrients being Fats - Proteins - Carbs.
