 Re: I feel yuck is this normal | |
Yep, is normal - but it doesn't have to be that bad, y'all!
There is a diuretic event when your body switches from carb- to fat-burning mode and with it go often a huge amount of water and also electrolytes (ie, potassium, magnesium, and other mineral salts). This can put your system out of whack until the body's metabolic readjustment is stablized. Headaches, dizziness, blas, weakness... even shakiness can be minimized not just with water but better, with replacing those salts as well.
I avoid the so-called "induction flu" by drinking lots of water and taking supplements with those elements, sipping broth with salty seasoning, adding sea salt and epsom salt etc. along with my food.
