If you're feeling great, you probably aren't developing hypoglycemia. But, there is something called the dawn phenomenon that happens for a few reasons. It may happen because of gluconeogenesis, you're prediabetic, you have insulin resistance, or you get a spike in cortisol. When you test your ketones: You can check your ketone levels through your blood, breath, or urine. When you start out, I recommend checking your urine. When you're more experienced, I recommend checking your blood. Ketones provide 30-38% of the fuel in the body. 50-60% of the fuel is going to be from fatty acids. Even though your ketones may be low, you may still be burning fat. You just can't test it. I wouldn't worry if you're doing keto and intermittent fasting, but you're ketones are low—it's because probably because of the dawn phenomenon. Which is more important to test, glucose, or ketones? *I think glucose is more important to test than ketones. But, I recommend testing them both to understand what's happening and the significance of each one.
