yeah i've only heard it helps flush any ketones out and gives you a non-carb drink while you wait for your insulin correction dose to bring the sugar down.

haha i never have more than a trace of ketones when i test..but i dont think much water. it's good to keep hydrated of course, but i dont think i've ever had 8 glasses of water in a single day in my life...unless it had crystal light in it..haha
