• Honey
• Pizza
• Fries
• Beans
• Rice
• Condiments high in sugar
• Higher carb fruits, such as apples or bananas
• Starchy vegetables like corn, potatoes, and carrots

Of course, we all love pizza, pasta, hamburgers and hot dogs — we have Keto versions of them so don’t worry!

Switching from a high-carb diet to a very-low-carb diet lowers insulin levels in your body. This is not only healthy but also one of the primary goals of a ketogenic diet. When insulin levels are very low, your liver begins converting fat into ketones, which most of your cells can use in place of glucose. When your body is mainly using ketones and fat for energy, you’re in a state of ketosis.

However, it takes your brain and other organs some time to adapt to using this new fuel. When your insulin levels drop, your body responds by excreting more sodium in the urine, along with water. Because of this, you’ll probably find yourself urinating a lot more often in the first week or so of a keto diet.

This change is responsible for some of the rapid – and usually very welcome! – weight loss that happens in the early stages of a keto diet. However, losing a lot of water and sodium is responsible for many of the unpleasant symptoms of keto flu.

It’s well known that response to the keto transition is very individual. Some people may feel fine or slightly tired for a day or two after starting keto. At the other extreme, there are those who develop symptoms that strongly impact their ability to function for several days.

However, the keto flu doesn’t have to be unbearable for anyone if the proper steps are taken to remedy it.

Drink consommé, bouillon, bone broth, chicken stock or beef stock — and stir in a spoonful of salted butter, if you like. Or, if you’re using low-sodium bone broth or stock, add a pinch or two of salt. For vegetarians: vegetable broth is just as good, but you need to add more salt than you’re accostumed to get the same relief.

In addition, make sure you’re drinking enough water. The larger you are, the more water you’ll probably lose in the early stages of keto, and the more you’ll need to replace.
