I have heard of the "keto flu" before. I believe it is just a few days of fever type symptoms. Your body should acclimated quickly.

Starting a ketogenic (keto) diet can lead to several common side effects, often referred to as the "keto flu." These side effects usually occur as your body adjusts to a low-carbohydrate, high-fat diet. Some common side effects include: 1. Headache 2. Fatigue 3. Dizziness 4. Nausea 5. Irritability 6. Difficulty sleeping 7. Constipation or diarrhea 8. Muscle cramps These symptoms typically last from a few days to a couple of weeks as your body adapts to using fat as its primary energy source instead of carbohydrates. To minimize these side effects, consider the following tips: 1. **Stay Hydrated**: Drink plenty of water to help flush out toxins and reduce symptoms like headache and fatigue. 2. **Electrolyte Balance**: Ensure you are getting enough sodium, potassium, and magnesium, as electrolyte imbalances can exacerbate symptoms. 3. **Gradual Transition**: Instead of abruptly cutting out carbs, gradually reduce your carbohydrate intake to allow your body more time to adjust. 4. **Eat Enough Fat**: Ensure you are consuming enough healthy fats to provide your body with sufficient energy. 5. **Get Plenty of Rest**: Adequate sleep can help your body adjust more smoothly. 6. **Stay Active**: Light exercise can help your body adapt to the new energy source and reduce symptoms. If symptoms persist beyond a few weeks or are particularly severe, it's a good idea to consult with a healthcare professional.
