For me to get off meds I ate less carbs daily. Protein with each meal and lots of veggies. Fat slows the absorption of sugar.
Got off meds and to maintain it had less than 75-100 carbs daily. I never have a cheat day as it can mess with your A1C over time if you have too many cheat days. Rarely does my sugar go over 140 two hours after a meal. I eat to my meter.

Good luck. Keto diet is high fat so some fat is good especially peppitas which I eat too.

I sorta test what happens if I eat fat they say fats are no good see how I feel

Fat either good or bad is the most blood sugar friendly major (group) that you can eat. It does very little to your blood sugar (if anything at all).

While the bad fats (saturated and trans) are really bad for your cardiovascular health, they should not effect your diabetes.

In an ounce of dried pumpkin seeds you do get 13.9 grams of fat - 2.5 grams is the "bad" saturated stuff but the other 11.4 grams are "unsaturated fats" which are heart healthy.

An ounce also contains about 3 carbs and about 8 1/2 grams of protein.

So unless you are eating a "few ounces" at a time they should not (generally) effect your blood sugar.

But Diabetes sometimes doesn't follow the rules.

I know for myself that almost any quantity of "peas" in any form jacks my blood sugar through the roof. I can handle almost 40 carbs worth of Kidney Beans and stay in range but 10 carbs worth of peas (or pea protein) and it is way out of range.

But fat is almost never the issue.

I follow a Low Carb (under 130/day), High Fat diet. On average I get about 60% of my total calories from FAT - last week (I track everything) I averaged 115 grams of fat a day (of which 37 grams were saturated - on average), 110 "net carbs" (140 of which 30 were fiber - again, daily average) and 86 grams of protein which made up my 1933 calorie a day intake.

Eating (that) my blood sugar "averaged" 6.1 mmols/110 points with no single reading above 7.3 mmols/131 points.

If you "eat your meter" and find that a particular food or quantity of food takes you out of range (or higher then you would like) you simply cut it out or cut it back.

But it is carbs and to a lesser extent, protein (in the absence of sufficient carbs - because we will go into fasting mode if we eat less than about 15 carbs every 4 to 6 hours and that can jack your numbers - that have an effect on blood sugar.

Thanks again everyone for the information!

Thank you of explaining fats. I love learning more. THANK YOU1
