    This thread is really helping me. I just started trying to eat keto 2 days ago and I think the keto "flu" has set in. I'm feeling the nausea and brain fog which started last night. Hoping it doesn't last too long because it's not fun. Had my broth this morning and started potassium supplements yesterday. Also trying to drink lots of water.

    Congratulations on a new beginning!

    Don't forget magnesium citrate (you can get it online)!

    Salt and more salt. Broth is good, but I thought I was getting enough salt and I wasn't. Started salting till I noticed and even taking a pinch of the Himalayas salt just straight and it helped a lot!
    Good luck, and keto on! the next few days you should feel a difference.

    The salt tablets have really helped me. I don't wait to feel bad before taking them. I know at first I had a boost of energy within 30 minutes or so. I was cleaning house like crazy (even baseboards!) With the energy. Now I just feel good! Salt is vital to well being with this woe! And as was mentioned, potassium is important as well as magnesium. Finding the balance that works for you is super important! I'm right at eight months into this woe and am still adjusting! Hang in there! Hope you're feeling better! :smiley:
