Supplements

Curious, do people take supplements while eating keto? I have been told to take liver beef liver supplements since I don’t eat organ meat? What about probiotics?

I know I read where people take magnesium, especially at night cause it helps them sleep.

In short, yes. There is a Supplements section you might peruse.

Lots of ketonians supplement with magnesium, salt, and potassium to replace electrolytes (keto is a diuretic, removing fluids along with those minerals, so up your H2O also). Others supplement with a variety of things they believe in. Remember n=1.

I also learned the hard way that fasting can deplete good gut bacteria, so we eat fermented foods (search on “fermented food” for more) and use probiotics.

Good luck! KCKO
