Just lower your carbs to 20 grams and you'll enter ketosis - not necessarily


#41

There are times when I did not register anything on the cheap breathlyzers I have owned even when I have not eaten in 24 hours. My ketones rarely get high and I do not bother. I stop eating at 5 usually and often at night I am freezing, the same as when I used to do longer fasts. I assume I am in ketosis but as long as I keep losing weight I do not really care

I did get the keto flu back in 2017 when I first started. I have hashimotos so that may be the reason I really do not get deep into ketosis but I am not sure

20g is still a good benchmark for most people, especially in the beginning. We each find our own way over time.

I agree,that´s why I posted above. There has to be one number or another to guide in the beginning.

I have always found the “Keto Flu Hysteria” amusing. People are actually expecting a cold like flu. There are bloody books written about “The Horrible, Dangerous Killer Keto Flu”.
