Ketogenic Diet Quick Tip List
1 min readNov 13, 2018
- Carry around mints/gum to not offend yourself and others with keto-breadth
- If you’re having low energy spells consuming ketones or MCT oil can get you through
- Don’t eat too much protein — more than 4–5 oz per meal. Excess protein gets turned into glucose via gluconeogenesis
- Drink a ton of water, as during ketosis your body tends to dump it. Adding a bit of salt will help you retain a little more of it.
- Artificial sweeteners may or may not cause an insulin response in you. So far the one least likely to is stevia.
- If you’re going to drink, be aware that (1) your tolerance will be lower and (2) you can only have liquors, club soda, & water if you want to avoid carbs.
- Keto Blood Meters are way more accurate than the strips.
