Low fasting blood glucose level (feeling fine)
(This is the closes category I could find in the forums, but I'm not diabetic).
I've been on (practically) zero-carbs for about 9 weeks now. I have a glucose meter because I occasionally measured by BGL after meals, and I haven't seen spikes.
Due to my natural curiosity, I checked my fasting glucose level this morning and it was 66 mg/dl. The meter warned that this is low. However, I had just finished my morning bike rid (45min) and was feeling fine.
So I wonder if the ketogenic diet messes with how the Bayer glucose strips are calibrated, or if Glucose Blood Level still means anything when one is in ketosis.
Thanks.
