Smile Ketogenic Diet Gaps Diet

I have had SFN for 2 years and 2 weeks ago was dx with pre-diabetes. My fasting glucose has always been below "normal" levels. It wasn't until I asked for an OGTT test and an insulin test that I discovered the problem. I have now cut my carbs to about 10% per day and have attained good blood glucose readings.

I have recently read a number of articles on Ketogenic and Gap diets, and because high BG has played a part in causing SNF I am now considering cutting carbs even further. I am wondering if anyone has tried either of these diets and had any success?

I also read this recently and wonder if anyone has any ideas on it.
