This question has been discussed here a quite a few times, responding to other people who are afraid to go off keto. Unfortunately, I keep forgetting the answer to this. (I've never had problems with high blood sugar or diabetes.) But hold on, and wait until someone who knows the details comes on and answers.
The thing is, this diet is healthier for you, better for your blood sugar, than keto, by a long shot. The idea that you want to eat "even healthier" than keto is an inaccurate one, because keto is the very opposite of healthy. At some points when you are on it, it can make your blood tests look good, so people think it's helping, but it is really making you (for instance,if you are insulin resistant) even sicker. The improvement on keto is a temporary mirage.
A very low-fat, high carb diet, using whole, minimally processed foods, is what will allow you to get your cells functioning properly so they will let the glucose in.
So if you refuse to go on this type of diet, you will never fix the problem. But you will think you have for a while
I just had to attempt an answer, because it is so frustrating to see people continually thinking this about keto. I am hoping someone else answers soon with details, or corrections to what I wrote above.
