In this video, Dr. Berg answers the question, "Can I do keto and intermittent fasting if I am a diabetic on metformin and insulin. The answer is yes because in both situations your sugar is high and your insulin will also be high. This is because, in type 1, you're taking insulin and fluctuating be a higher high sugar state and a low blood sugar state and taking some carbs to raise it.

Rarely does one focus on the triggers of blood sugars in the first place. This is a deeper root cause and if you could take the least amount of insulin to control blood sugars then you will receive the least amount of side effects.

High insulin is a bit more dangerous than high sugars, but both are equally bad for your eyes (retina), your kidneys, your heart and blood vessels, and your nerves and brain.

So the top two things you need to do is reduce your carbs and do intermittent fasting. Both of these actions will greatly take the stress on the cells of the pancreas and liver and allow you to take less insulin. Get with your doctor as you manage your medications on this.
