Does anyone have any experience of this? Google seems to think it's OK.
There's a worrying case of a Swedish mother who ended up with a severe euglyceamic ketoacidosis, but it seems she really wasn't eating much of anything. I'd adjust it to 50-60g of carbs a day, and would expect to be in ketosis on this. In pregnancy (gestational diabetes) I was started on insulin as I was ketotic on (approx)100g of low GI carbs a day, and the metabolic demand of breastfeeding is meant to be higher! I am worried about it affecting supply though. I'm a bit torn between low carb or just low GI ( and am using it as an excuse to not start anything )
