dizzy

Hey there-
I am on day two of re-induction and feeling a bit dizzy...
I know to expect the headaches, etc. as part of the induction flu, but is dizziness normal?

It happened to me - not sure exactly why, but induction made me dizzy all the time!

I'm gonna keep it short. Yes it is

Luca, meat broth, more liquids in general, potassium salt, etc., might take care of that. I didn't know about those when I went ketogenic and found dizziness a problem. Had to get up slowly and watch my balance.

I find beef broth a great help, daily, for feeling strong and steady.

All the best to you.

Happens to me! It passes pretty quickly. Makes walking around corners fun!

Yes very normal and the new Atkins book suggests to drink broth and/or add extra salt to your food until it passes.

I still get that now sometimes, especially in the summer and extra salt always fixes it.

Wow, what a coincidence!! I just started back to induction yesterday too, and was really dizzy today. I remember this from before and know it'll pass.

Didnt' think about the salt. I'll add more tomorrow, and thanks for the suggestion!!
