KETO-FLU

  • Occurs when your body cuts out sugar and such
  • You don't have to be in ketosis to feel this
  • When you are used to living on grain and sugar, cutting it out may make you feel a bit sick or lethargic
    • Body is building up ketones 
      • A form of energy 
  • Used to be called "Atkins Flu"
  • Your brain works better on ketone bodies 
    • Epileptic people are now told to be on ketogenic diets, for example 
  • To help it, add salt in your food, have extra water, etc. 
  • It is okay and it will go away!
