No, it is not ketogenic, but it may be close. I just tried some ketone urine strips before lunch today for the first time and ketones are very low.

I just eat it. (3 + 2) morning, 3 noon, 3 dinner. I'm always experimenting on the timing. I'll feel the effects wearing off, but it takes a few hours for the new dosage to kick in, so it can be a bit of a roller coaster ride sometimes.

I started noticing PD symptoms fading after about a month at dosage level of 6-8 TBS a day. I keep a daily diary.

Meds 3 x 1.5 x 100mg/25mg levocarb and 3 x 1 x 1.5mg mirapex and 2 x 1 x 2mg trihex
