5 Ways to Cope with Keto Flu | Keto Flu Snack

Tips for Coping With Keto Flu
1. Hydrate! Drink a minimum of 1/2 your body weight in fluid ounces daily and consider water infusions to flavor your water and make it more hydrating to your cells.
2. Add Salt. Aim for 2 tsp mineral-rich sea salt daily such as Redmond Real Salt. Use code ALIMILLERRD at checkout for savings.
3. Increase Potassium. This balances sodium in the body and aids in reducing muscle cramps and heart palpitations. Avocado and bacon are potassium-rich keto foods.
4. Focus on magnesium-rich foods including 2-3 cups leafy greens and supplement with magnesium bis-glycinate such as Relax and Regulate.
5. Bump up your carnitine intake! Consume grassfed red meat 3-4 times per week and consider Boost and Burn, especially if seeing low ketone output or extreme fatigue.

Celery one stalk, ginger a slice, half teaspoon tumeric blend together and drink down. I had the worst I tell you “keto flu” with weakness, brain fog, exhausted and my legs felt like bricks. After drinking this tonic in minutes I felt tons better. ❤

You ladies saved me today. I wasn't finding clear, concise symptoms of keto flu, so as to compare with my own symptoms. Fatigue, dizziness, severe brain fog, mild headaches, constipation. Having this info made me stronger and more determined. And your helpful suggestions are quite wonderful. Thanks! Stan

My increased heart rate comes with shortness of breath…just to give a context, first time keto with moderate carb intake, keeping milk and one fruit per day, and still, after 1 week into the diet I came across this problem I don t know how to solve and wonder how much will take to go away. I m 55 kg and 165 cm, if it counts..:(
