Yes, but you have to work really hard for many years to achieve this!

While on T1D it happens by default if you don't inject insulin.

It was being said like ketones are bad, because they are known for this scenario, but should be noted that it only happens in these few scenarios, like in uncontrolled diabetes or organ failure or smth.

In most other cases they should be good. But won't happen randomly unless you're explicitly doing keto.

Ah yes, I see what you mean! Ketones are not inherently bad, just the accumulation of them w.r.t having diabetes. Should have made that more clear.
