I've used keto myself several times though only as short-term diet change. I myself never fully seemed to recover from the Keto-flu even after months of eating strict keto. Adding back natural complex carbs helped me immensely in that regard.
- trevyn 9y agoDid you intentionally up your salt intake? Apparently this is important for energy on keto for some reason.
- RossBencina 9y agoAs trevyn says, you need to make sure you get enough sodium. Ketogenic diet accelerates excretion of sodium ("natriuresis of fasting"). Look up Steve Phinney's videos or books if you want more info -- he recommends drinking a few full-sodium stock cubes every day. Another common issue during adaption seems to be not eating enough fat.
- bgitarts 9y agoWon't adding salt to meals and perhaps a pinch to water in the morning be sufficient?
