Actually, that's not true. Ketosis is not dangerous. Ketoacidosis can
be quite dangerous. It's caused by high BG in an absence of insulin.
Ketosis is just a state when you're burning fat instead of glucose.

If I found my endo didn't know the difference, I'd start looking
elsewhere for care. It's pretty basic.
