Keto Flu Warning
Avoid the Keto Flu!
If you have been preparing to start the keto diet then you know one of the biggest concerns is the possibility of the keto flu in the first few weeks of your diet.
How the Keto Flu Gets a Foothold
The keto flu develops when the body is under extreme stress. I liken it to when the Titanic spotted that iceburg, and make a valiant attempt to avoid it by turning this massive ship abruptly. This is what some people do when they start the keto diet – they stop all carbs, get rid of the Coca-Cola and Sprite, take the sugar out of their coffee, rid themselves of cookies and brownies and eats nothing but steak and then gets sick as a dog. They call it the keto flu, and it is nasty.
So, what’s the secret to avoiding the keto flu? Easing into it!
Simply, don’t go cold turkey on everything, and specifically don’t go to an “all steak 24×7” approach like that young woman in the link above. First of all, you will get sick as a dog and not enjoy it. Besides that, going all-in on keto will also give you keto diarrhea, which is more fun than the keto flu, but generally not fun overall (no one loves thinking they are going to fart, but you end up ruining a pair of pants!). It is seriously a pain in the ass!
Tips If You Have The Keto Flu
Likely, it is no fun to start an exciting new path in life and get knocked off your feet right at the start.
Symptoms of the Keto Flu
Think you have the keto flu? You’ll know if you have this combination of symptoms:
Headache
Cough
Feeling Tired
Irritable
Nausea
Recovering From The Keto Flu
If you find yourself with the flu after starting the keto diet, here are some tips to get you back on your feet: First, check your electrolyte levels – the sodium, potassium and magnesium levels before you started the diet, and where you are at now. Typically, there is a big drop in sodium when you drop the fries and salad dressing and other prepared foods, and that throws the other electrolytes out of whack. Simply adding some salt and lemon juice to your drinking water might be all you need to recover quickly.
There are “complete” electrolyte drops you can buy and add to your water, and you might want to pick one of those up at a store near you. Another tip that is always good for the flu is chicken soup.
The broth in chicken soup is filled with electrolytes and for reasons unknown, chicken soup is always tasty when you have the keto flu.
Tips To Avoid The Keto Flu
Here’s a good overview of the ketosis process, how it develops in the body, what its benefits are, and what other effects you will experience:
Art and Science of Nutritional Ketosis
Starting The Keto Diet Without The Keto Flu
What are some good tips to starting a keto diet and avoiding the keto flu?
Baseline your carbs, fat and protein intake, roughly how much of each?
Reduce your carbs by 20% every 3 days, so by 15 days you are at keto levels.
Increase your protein/fat intake by 20% calories every 3 days, roughly. (Just adding an extra chicken or steak to one meal each day might just do it).
Keep your electrolytes in balance by adding a pinch of salt to your drinking water (and drink water on this diet).
Generally, success in keto comes when you get serious about the little things…the sugar in your coffee, the non-keto dessert at the end of each meal, that glass of wine with your dinner (you get the idea). Keto is a serious protocol and to win and get the results you see you will need to be vigilant about cutting out the carbs.

Nice keto shopping list, thank you! Was it hard transitioning to keto? Without carbs, I simply cannot function. I feel tired, cranky, lethargic, and definitely don't want to work out. Any explanation/tips?
That’s exactly how I was at first. I’d recommend finding a friend who will do it with you - that always helps. You’re always welcome to talk to me too! Don’t worry, after the first few weeks, you’ll really start to turn around and feel much better. Don’t get too crazy about avoiding small treats like berries and fake sugar - let yourself use them to help transition over. Try making the scones I posted recently for breakfast, and look up some quick ‘mug cake’ recipes for at night. They’re the best things I’ve found for destroying sugar cravings. Definitely don’t let yourself feel hungry - and make sure you’re getting enough fat for energy (coconut oil in coffee is one of my go-tos, also cooking everything in bacon grease). I actually don’t work out at all, and I’ve still lost almost 30 pounds in just a few months… so don’t feel too guilty about not working out until you get more adjusted. :)
