https://t.co/3DtJcG3DS7 Just posted my glycemic results for January 2025. Normal blood glucose and glycemic variability is possible with a ketogenic diet, insulin, metformin, and exercise. Give it a try! https://t.co/CQ99RkjGMC

Happy New Year All! Just posted new monthly blog. https://t.co/Ov4ZyoiLn7
Normal blood glucose can be achieved with a ketogenic low-carb diet for those with type 1 diabetes.

Just posted a new blog post for November describing my management of T1D with a ketogenic diet, exercise, insulin, and metformin resulting in normal blood glucose and variability. Been doing this since 2012. Yes, it's sustainable! https://t.co/7O6Akno1Xi

@kevinstock12 Thanks for the info Kevin. I was looking for some evidence to support keto/carnivore for a friend with periodontal disease with loose teeth. I've followed a strict keto diet since 2012 for T1D with great success. My friend has resisted my recommendation to change his diet.

[Keith Runyan, MD @KeithRunyanMD]

@kevinstock12 Hi Kevin, do you think or are aware of any studies or anecdotes of cases where a keto/carnivore diet would reverse/heal periodontitis? Thanks.
