Will drinking water help ketosis?
Dehydration is a potential cause of Keto flu. Because of this, many sources recommend aggressively swilling water on Keto to prevent the headaches, cramps, fatigue, and malaise linked to low-carb dieting. But while Keto does increase hydration needs, drinking more water isn't necessarily the answer.
Does drinking a lot of water dilute ketones?
Drinking more water Many people suggest that drinking more water may help reduce a person's keto breath. This is because the body expels more ketones in urine rather than as a breath. By drinking water, people will produce more urine, which will help expel many of the ketones from the body.May 23, 2019
