I have a basic understanding of Ketosis, and the low amounts of carbohydrates that should be eaten. I was doing some AP biology work and i read that eating carbohydrates causes insulin to be secreted which reduces blood sugar levels. So in short, my question is this: would it be dangerous to eat large amounts of sugars if insulin isn't being secreted to counteract blood sugar levels?

I hope you realize that if you're eating low/no carbs, then you're not eating any sugar...

Yes, it would. That is a problem that diabetics have, but if you're asking if its dangerous to eat sugar in ketosis, then no you're fine but it is pointless... You shouldn't be eating a lot of sugar if you're trying to get into ketosis anyway..

Look at nutritional facts on any food product. You'll see carbohydrates and then sugars below it. You are still eating sugars...Originally Posted by JaguarHB28

Therefore, keto= no carbs= no sugar either. You can't take in a ton of sugar if you want to be in ketosis.:3
