I have always felt it safe, but having naysayers around me, made me question it. I have gotten those ketone strips, and at times, i have registered a high count of ketones..extreme purple, but after expressing some breast milk onto the strip, it registers negative.
I am convinced that your breastmilk has the same nutrional facts, no matter what you eat.

Ketones don't pass into breastmilk. First question I asked when I got hold of Dr Jack Newman.
In any case, an exclusively breastfed baby is in ketosis, as breastmilk is a high fat food....
