What is up with this trend I'm seeing???
I watch a lot of weight loss and keto vlogs on YT, plus I follow a lot of the same people and similar people on instagram and I've noticed a trend towards "cheat days" or "refeeding" or "carb loading".

I can't handle the bloating anymore
How do I get my stomach to calm down? I've been doing keto for 2.5 months... I'm drinking electrolyte drinks regularly to get my sodium and potassium in. What else can I do??? I never had bloating, gas or stomach pain before Keto... I was regular as clockwork... now I'm either totally constipated or having diarrhea... I…

Please clear up the sodium/cal/mag/potassium thing for me...
Some websites say to take it just during keto flu when you're starting out, but somehow I got the impression along the way that I need to continue taking it every day long term... Which is it?
