Yes A ketogenic diet works well for many type 2 diabetics because it restricts carbohydrates. ... They're the macronutrient that raises blood sugar the most, which is why drastically reducing how many you eat can help normalize your blood glucose levels.

Keto diets give you fast results to control the blood sugar, but it is not practical to continue lifelong. Caution is required with high blood pressure .It can cause craving for food. It is high in fat. It is more suitable in patients suffering from epileptic disorder and Parkinsons disease.
