    Yes
    It will pass in a few days.
    Your stomach is changing the way it processes food and needs to make the new bacteria to help break down your new diet...

    Remember to stay hydrated and remember to get some fibre into you via veges..

    Your stomach acid gets a bit more potent on a Keto program. As Eelko said, it will pass in a few days.


    It will happen again if you start eating too many carbs.

    So basically when you do keto (I'm new too) your body goes from burning regular gas station fuel to high octane fuel for jets and stuff. Your body goes from using glucose as a fuel to burning stored fat. Sometimes people go through what is known as the "keto flu". To put it plainly it's your body adjusting to your new fuel. You will experience lots and lots of changes. But I know several people who have had amazing success with this diet. So at any rate good luck!!!

    Use extra salt or low carb electrolyte drinks. Any sudden change in how we eat can have an adjustment period. Your body is used to certain foods and you're changing that.
