Why are my ketone levels high even though my blood sugar is normal, after I lost weight by switching to a low-carb, high-protein diet and exercising while taking Gluconorm G1?
Your elevated ketone levels with normal blood sugar are likely due to your low-carbohydrate diet and active lifestyle. When you limit carbs, your body naturally burns fat for fuel, producing ketones. This is known as nutritional ketosis. Your medication, Gluconorm G1 (which contains glimepiride and metformin), is doing its job to keep your blood sugar stable. While this is generally safe, it is always a good idea to share these results with your doctor to ensure your medication dosage is still perfect for your new, healthier lifestyle.
