You have a source for that? It’s my understanding that ketoacidosis is pretty hard to achieve unless you’re diabetic or some other serious medical condition. It is not the same as ketosis.
Ketoacidosis would be easy to achieve by just taking too many exogenous ketones too quickly. Ketones are acidic, the body doesn't like to have unbalanced blood pH.
It is rare without ketone supplementation, because unless you're fasting, eating a ketogenic diet, or are diabetic, the body doesn't usually have a high concentration of circulating endogenous ketones.
Diabetics can become so insulin resistant that their cells no longer uptake glucose, so they must fall back to burning ketones for energy, even while blood sugar is very elevated and food intake is normal. This is why DKA is so dangerous and (relatively) common.
Nothing about ketoacidosis is limited to diabetics - its just not common in non-diabetics, because how would you get such high concentrations of ketones? ...
