How do you keep blood levels elevated?

Usually at day 3 fasting I’m in ketosis but my sugar blood level drops below 70 and stays around 50. Any ideas how to keep it up without breaking fast and ketosis process? I was thinking maybe half a spoon honey etc?

Answer

Most of your body is running on ketones, so how much glucose do you need? Are you diabetic? Under a doctor’s care?

I wish we could get a definitive answer on this stuff. For what it’s worth my doctor was unfazed by a reading of 60 five days into a water fast.
