It's also a large part electrolyte imbalance from some dehydration... drinking more water with salts can help a lot. It isn't magic, but can help with glucose control without medication, or without as much... eating enough protein, which keto people tend to get plenty, also has higher satiety, which can lead to eating less. Going to 1-2 meals a day will have mostly the same effects.

I think keto and carnivore are really better depending on one's specific metabolic and/or autoimmune issues. For most people, eating less processed crap (junk/fast food and trans fats particularly), less modern grains, less seed oils. Instead, having a well balanced diet which imho should include at least eggs, butter and fish is a great starting point.
