Thank you for this video. You are God sent! I felt so discouraged because I was so thirsty! I drank 6 liters of water yesterday And still am thirsty. I thought the salt from “bacon” was enough! Now I get it. Thank you.
Thank you for tuning in! :)
@@JigsawHealthTV great video dude, I never knew this about table salt and was chucking it on my breakfast, I will get some pink himalayan sea salt, I have been making electrolyte water with cream of tartar and bog standard sea salt, would that be OK or should I just get the himalayan stuff and stick to that?.
Wow! I've never had this explained at all! Omg thank you!!! This makes so much sense
That was such great information WOW!!!!
Thank you for making this! I've got hypothyroidism and I really need to lose these 25-30 pounds so I thought I should try keto. I am very thirsty though so this is amazing. Very informative. I love the the ins and outs of the WHYS so I appreciate you for doing the research and sharing your findings!
Thanks again!!
"Have to get that pink salt and potassium in ya n stop eating fatty " cole voice lol
Better than any professor I've ever had. Love Thomas
I have tried many different extreme diets(fruitarian, keto) and so when we go one extreme we cut out nutrients or vitamins like in this case with keto essential minerals. I experienced lots of energy on fruitarian but loss muscle and quickly got bored of just fruit after 17 days. I too experienced dehydration on keto. I've learned from both that a healthy balance of all "whole foods" not to be confused with processed garbage... be it grass fed meat, fish, nuts ,seeds, vegetables, root vegs,fruit, whole non processed 1 word grain(rice, quinoa) beans or lentils we don't throw our body out one way or the other and miss out on "any" nutrient we need. Your body is telling you on this extreme keto something is wrong. Quickly cured by eating a variety of foods.
Excellent advice! I'm discovering same imbalances after trying a variety of diets/lifestyle changes. Thank you. Your comments are very encouraging. Extreme either way is not good for our bodies; a good balance is critical for optimal health. I'm sticking to a "balanced" approach from here on in. By the way, your comment is also well written. God bless you,
Thanks brotha. Very good info. I stayed up last night until 4am ovwrurinating 14 times. Smh
Insane videos.....helpee a lot....I was just feeling salty and had no idea why...but thanks to you now I know😁😁😁😎😎❤❤❤🖤🖤
This video is so valuable!
Good video. Thank you for the information ;)
I'm having crazy thirst on carnivore. This is the first great coherent video on the matter, thanks a bunch!!!
Great Video Thomas! I'm curious as to what you think a ketogenic diet is doing to a persons mineral balancing for their hair mineral test? I'm guessing more fat and less carbs in general would increase calcium, magnesium and potassium in the cell, and decrease sodium? Curious to hear your thoughts.
I love keto and reduced fluid and inflammation. BUT I have a long history of disc degeneration in my spine and the fluid loss seems to be ramping up my back pain.
Mine too.
I have been so thirsty waiting to get off work so I could drink a gallon of water and then saw this video and instead of drinking a gallon of water. I put about a fourth of a teaspoon under my tongue and that is crazy how I’m no longer dying of thirst!! Thank you so much for this video! Would’ve never thought salt would help me not be thirsty that doesn’t even make sense in my head seems like it would be the opposite😮
Interesting - in my case, I needed to decrease my salt intake! Also, I think I need to introduce a bit carb, like fermented veggies and fruit, as Sean OMara talks about. Dying of thirst and peeing way too much!
🙋☺Just started Carnivore 9 days ago. I am feeling amazing. However I am really having an increased thirst. I knew a little bit about this topic and low carb but never as much as Thomas shares with us. I came here to get the answers I needed. Thanks a bunch.
Happy Holidays in Dec. 2020🎄☺
This was so informative! Thanks for addressing this and explaining how weight returns so quickly after a typical carb cheat in the form of water retention. I was experiencing extremely dry mouth and wondered why. Even though I thought I was getting enough salt by salting my drinks and food, I wasn’t aware of the number of milligrams necessary and how the sodium gets processed so differently when the body is in ketosis. Awesome video!
Excellent details on how, when, why, what sodium to consume. Other health channels just say you need to increase electrolytes - Thomas' details are nuanced.
Yes. Thank God for this man spreading his knowledge!
Hi there. I work outdoors in the hot sun doing physical labor. I fast daily until after work. I usually throw salt in a gallon of water and drink the whole thing throughout the day. I finally bought Magnesium Glycinate Powder, Potassium Citrate, and Redmond Real Salt. What would be the amount I should add to the entire gallon for a day? I also distance trail run and lift weights in the morning so I sweat a lot. What is your suggestion?
Thank you! This was right on time. For the last 4 days I've felt these symptoms. Now I know why. I can handle it today.
Me too
goodness i thought this was diabetes
@@FIutterWave me too!!! My coworkers hate me now lmao but I had some blood test that said dehydration
Thank you for all the info. I want to know how can we consider ketogenic lifestyle as natural healthy lifestyle when we have to add these electrolytes solutions in our lives.. I mean is there any natural way for electrolyte balance
I must be doing something wrong because I started keto and started feeling heart heart palpitations a few weeks later. On the bright side I did drop around 11 pounds.
Drink LMNT ELECTROLYTES IN YOUR WATER. OR GATORADE ZERO PACKETS IN YOUR WATER
@@ricardotorres1938 Yup, that’s exactly what I did. Starting drinking electrolytes and eating more potassium. Also started taking some magnesium supplement and I feel way better.
Hi! Do you have any scientific sources that I could read on this topic??
How long does this last Thomas? Does this last the entire duration of the keto lifestyle?
sadly no answer
Thanks for the videos. I started keto diet 5 days ago with initially 2 day 16 hrs fasting. Before the diet, i was already in low carb high protein diet for about a month but my weight despite the lower colories was not not changing. In this past 5 day, i lost 0.5kg and see my waist has shranken a little. I drink 2700ml water a day. I feel very tired in the evenings. Had hard time sleeping for firts 3 days. My eyes and lips are very dry. Dont have fruity mouth but urine test in the morning show 8 which large but i dring more water during the day the reading goes down to 4 or lower. Also checked my blood gulocos fasting 77. How long does it takes to see drop in ketones level in the urine?
I lost 15 lbs the first 17 days on keto and I did lazy keto the first like week. After that I stayed the same for a few days then started losing again. I just can’t kick this dizziness/lightheaded mess when I go from bending over to standing. It’s bad.
Miso soup has been helping me.
I honestly never feel thirsty, so some days I only get about 2 litres of water. Is 2 litres enough or am I sabotaging the diet, btw the two litres always have sodium and potassium in it.
Awesome
I am on day 5 of keto, and I fear I'm not in ketosis yet. I don't feel any different but I am drinking way more water because I am always thirsty.
Me too
Eating only meat products will throw you into ketosis for sure. Why don't you start with that and then work your way back into a Paleo keto diet?
As you reintroduced things one-by-one back into your diet, you'll know if it's going to take you out of ketosis and then you can pinpoint the culprit to boot from your diet completely
Can I use finaflex keto lifestyle drink to replenish the vitamins?
What about very dry skin?
This guys a legend
Can dehydration cause very high ketones levels in the morning? My levels are high today, I'm not diabetic, lost 5 lbs in 3 weeks, and feel fine. I have to admit i have not been drinking alot of water, I'm worried.
Snake juice salts is a game changer.
Hmmm my appetite for water never went down but went way up.
Thank u so much,
can u tell me how much gramma per KG Body weight?
What about high blood pressure from chronic illness? Should I still add the sodium. Honestly, salt does not raise my blood pressure. Stress from my illness does.
I was was lead to do all of this (my diet) because of an automimmune disease... NOW ITS MY PASSION! My life is changed, and not only just me could use this... everyone could use this, or something better! As of now, I am doing my first fast, inspired by you! How I came across this video, is because I started to sweat purpusly, and get lite headed during my first fast. My fast is suprisingly doing the unthinkable... it is bringing up alot of emotions and past things.. It's crazy how the gut really is connected to your emotions, how you feel..and everything! That's why its so important to have a plan for healthy eating. To listen to yourself, but to also let go of the pressure, at the same time. But anyways, when this started coming on during my fast, I was sweating, and I had this sense of jolting, anxiety - like energy... and I heard that you are supposed to get colder from the research i did before my fast. So, I got concerned, and started some research again, which is what lead me to this specific video. What's mind blowing is that I still didnt get an answer... but that wouldnt be the first time that happened to me so- what do I do? I listen to my intuition like i did for everything else... Like I did before every other option that only seemed to sugar coat, dismiss, and cover up my problems... and EMOTIONS. (I cured myself without a single doctor from most symptoms and flare ups of my autoimmune IBD..) But at this point, I realized that my intuition says that I am sweating from my fast because my body is just doing what it needs to do, the best way It knows how to do it... and that I don't need to compare it to everyone else, because everyone is different, as I learned... but also the same- in a way. We just need to take care of ourselves, and nothing else. The best that we can, is all that we can do. But if you aren't doing that, then well... You will know- whether it is conscious, or subconscious by the guilt, judgement, and the way your body feels. Our bodies know what we need.. (mine maybe a bit too much! lol) but when we REALLY take awareness, action, dedication, and motivation... and not just going outside of ourselves for what we think we need ...then MAGIC HAPPENS. So btw, I swallowed a little sorbitol one day (barley any) from my mouthwash and I had a flare up... which indicated to me that the disease is still there even after my diet, manifesting and spirituality/holistic healing and trace mineral drops. ( i always got dehydrated easier.. I would go to the hospital at least three times a month from being so sick to the point that it's almost irreversible without an IV) Anyways, I was happy, and grateful for the fact that now I did not have symptoms (most of the time) anymore, besides when I accidentally had something I was not supposed to, or when I was just sensitive to sunlight, energy, or something like that. Sometimes I didn't really know, and at the time- that frustrated me. But today, it all just HIT me at once. At first, I was worried about the disease trying to figure it out..and here I am now, 10000 steps forward, and STILL upset that the disease was still there .... and trying to figure it. How could I do that without me? Its okay to figure it out with acceptance and knowing... Which is what lead me to try other things with my diet including occasional fasting! You just can't give up, but yet, you have to accept and trust at the same time. You have to keep going. Your mind is linked to your body, just like your body is linked to your brain. I'm breaking though all the demons caused by and before the disease , from conditioning, personal pain, and experiences.. "This is how it is" lead me to believe that "this is how I am..." and "This is how i fix me". "This is what I need." But the truth is, sometimes, we dont even know what we need in the moment. This feeling just never left me... Even when I thought those emotions did, I didn't not have symptoms, and everything was okay, .... I would still keep coming back to this feeling. I noticed it was when things went bad, and it brought up these emotions of not knowing what to do to make my own self feel better. Other things would trigger it too. The only way to discribe it is a loss of control of my body... beyond my actions. But what I did not realize before...was the power of just awareness itself, acceptance, and trust.. Thats it. As soon as something would happen, I would go in this DEFENSE AND SURVIVAL MODE. So at that point, its not only my body doing this (immune system)...but it was now my mind as well. ( maybe it always was) But my point here is, that from experience... Intuition is linked to the gut! Mind is linked to the body! The mind can apply to the healing of the rest of you by your will, (what you want)...which is already there, and you already know what to do.... by allowing the mind to just observe, like it knows how to do. The want that I already have, is enough for me to recieve what I need. To be in touch with my body is enough. I will do what I really want (not what I NEED to have) from what is, and what I really need, and that- is beyond me. Acceptance is real and it IS. If it is, then I can ... but if its not, and I don't have myself, then it isn't, and now here comes the need to identify, control, or make better. It's my right that I always knew I had... that's why there was so much BURNING PASSION. But by releasing my minds need to have what I want, and into my heart's desire for what I really want, (to be open, willing and available) In exchange for what i think I need... Is how I get what I want. What I want, is not always what is. What I want is not always me, but it always is me underneath.. which makes it WITHIN. It will be, because it is. That's my thing! Keep doing what you are doing.. it is so helpful and inspiring! especially for people like me!

If I'm not drinking enough water, will be weight loss stall or rate go down?
I was on a low carb diet and started to feel dehydrated than usual until on the 3rd and 4th day my dehydration skyrocketed and it was the most dehydrated I felt in my whole life. No matter how much water I drank I was dehydrated. I felt dying for the last 2 days until I started to eat carbs and drink electrolytes and I started feeling better. Carbs are back now but still with no added sugar and fruits diet so I don't know if this mild thirst is still part of it. I am getting a blood test later to see if it's not something related to blood sugar problems.
Noooo…. Cut the carbs. You needed electrolytes not carbs. Lemon 🍋 is a natural source for electrolytes as well as Himalayan pink salt.
I’m so thirsty that I’m drinking so much water all the time but just like you said, I pee like crazy.
Thanks for tuning in!
Me too. I'm always thirsty.
Excellent information! Even after 5 years. Also, there are those of us who needs to decrease salt (on carnivore diet, so no carbs), so that we are less thirsty. Otherwise I just can't satisfy my thirst and end up needed to drink much too close to bed time. But will also start eating fermented veggies and fruit as Sean OMara talks about.
I thought he said we need to increase salt.
So electrolytes or a bit sodium himalayan salt before eating
This explains why an old manager of mine kept passing out. She was on a keto diet and would black out at work.
No thats heroin nods.
So hypothetically, let’s say I do a “keto diet” where I don’t eat anything for a month (if advisable, if not then let’s say for a week or two maybe 🤷🏽♀️)… I can drink water (and or coconut water/pickle juice idk 🤷🏽♀️) but if I’m not eating anything, then I’m not getting the nutrients my body needs. Would it be okay to make up for it by in taking supplements? Like vitamins, minerals, and what not?
This the best video on the topic of water intake and electrolytes on a carnivore diet.
I am on dialysis .. can I go a keto diet
I really wish I could actually understand this.
He’s saying ur dehydrated. Bc keto = no carbs = no insulin spike = flushing out sodium = no water retention = dehydration faster than normal.
Combat this by eating small amount of pink Himalayan or sea salt
It’s this stuff I ordered called Hi-Lyte when I was going through my keep flu. The moment I added the tasteless drops into my water I automatically felt better. It has potassium,magnesium,electrolytes,zinc and a few other things. It also has no calories, starch,yeast,gluten,sugar,soy or carbs and the list goes on and on. This stuff has improved my keto experience to the max. As well as MCT OIL. Which I take to break my fasting period.
Hey Shantell we are glad you found an excellent product!
Where’d you purchase it at
Since i started keto omad, i started to have palpitations on my muscles and cramps everywhere. Also has dry mounth and lips. Though i drink a ton of water a day. Could this be due to excess water or less salt?
iMyne Soliven take electrolytes
I had this too, I took just table salt and everything went away
We use fluer de sel
And take salt before drinking hard liquor lol I've learned that the hard way...
The problem that I have is that I'm peeing alot and I understand that the sensor to tell me to drink is not going to go off because of what you just said, but my pee is almost perfectly clear. Isn't that a good indicator that I am hydrated enough? I honestly don't feel like I drink enough water in a day in terms of volume, but the color of my pee should be telling me whether I'm good or not, right?
What I understand is happening is although you are peeing, that's just because your kidneys are on standby ready to release what you've drunk. Because there are no carbs or very little there it isn't going to want to hold on to much. So that means we need to keep on drinking and drink more so that we can keep up with what the liver and kidney needs. We have to also get enough to upkeep with lipolysis, which requires hydrolysis, which requires a lot of water. I think it makes more sense to go off of how you feel with your water intake because sure you may be hydrated for that moment when your urine is clear, however what about in the next 3 hours? You can easily get dehydrated again. It's probably safer to just go ahead and drink.
What kind of salt do I go look for in the store? How much do I need to sprinkle in my water every day? I’m on the low carb diet for about 2 months now, ive lost over 25 pounds but I notice I feel weak and disoriented after workloads of sweating. I’m pretty sure it’s cuz I get low on minerals.
Himalayan Salt
Celtic Sea Salt
Or Redmond Real Salt.
@@saraw1302 5g daily is just over 1Teaspoon.
This is great. Thanks. But what does 3-5g of salt look like? A teaspoon, a tablespoon?
I just googled it. You can too. 5g works out to just over 1 teaspoon.
I stopped keto diet for 3 months ... I am eating carbs again for 3 months but I am still dehydrated. Always thirsty and always peeing. What should I do? Pls help!
Do you still have thirst problem? I read somewhere that after doing keto your body gets fat adopted meaning that it changes it preferable energy source from carbs to fats. Maybe your body still burning fats despite eating carbs. It will take time for your body to shift back to carbs. That is why it is important to eat carbs once in a while during keto to keep your cells active in both carb and fat burning mechanism.
Have you got rid of the problem? I have it too and don't know what to do 😩
What if my kidneys don’t work
The only thing that helps me rehydrate is watermelon 🍉. I eat like 1/2 of a big one a day... that's terrible.. don't know to sub it with... trying to drink more mineral water , but still craving for the watermelon 🍉. These days I eat only meat, avo and watermelon, sometimes berries. I removed anything else as I'm doing exclusion diet for my symptoms.
I have a huge problem now, eating keto is giving me a horrible seriously horrible body odor when I sweat it’s like sour ammonia type of smell PLEASE SOMEBODY HELP ME WITH AN ADVISE…
I've noticed this I am way more thirsty on keto
And when I eat, I just tend to put more sault in it
So am I !! I've only been on keto for 4 days and I'm tooooo thirsty
Be careful everyone
This is the only problem that I face in Keto...I have to wake up 2-3 times or more at night to urinate and never get a realm sleep
Same and I don't have solution
Stop drinking a couple hours before sleep.
@@andreaz747 Then I get thirsty
Get electrolytes. You all are super low in electrolytes compared to standard American diet with tons of sodium
I am on my second day of not drinking after 6pm. So far no real relief from nocturia. But I will give it more time. So sick of getting up to go pee.😢
Can I drink salt water without breaking an IF?
Yes, salt water or even a keto electrolyte drink mix won't break fasting.
Oh goodness. All this information on keto is overwhelming and a little frightening. Almost want to just stick to what I'm used to. *sighs*
It definitely is a lot to take in. Thank you for tuning in!
Start something new, learn new things
Thats mybproblem
Will my Blood Pressure go up with all this extra salt?
That, unfortunately, is something you would have to consult with a health care professional. Every person is different and we can't know everyone's individual needs.
KC native? And that's the beard tube guy drinking water in the gym? You guys are bro's?
His biceps look like they are gonna pop.
They're full of awesomeness. And discipline
so weird, i feel dehydrated when i eat carbs and cut them out to feel hydrated?
I agree this is one of the most confusing videos that I’ve heard…
After listening to it a few times I get it now, 👍
Why does insulin tell the kidneys to hold onto water? Anyone?
Insulin uses WhatsApp. They connect via wifi. When they don't communicate you have to reset your router to reset the connection.
Huh
Idk about this. Been eating tons of Kosher Salt and I still feel awful, weak, dehydrated, losing muscle mass, etc.
Same bro. 60g salt a day now. It Has helped a bit but i'm still thirsty, weak, constipated, and more... Don't know what I should do.
@@nah1110 since I left that comment I been eating Redmond’s salt and drinking Powerade zero. And I lowered my carbs to 20g or less per day. And I feel better. I think maybe body just takes time to adjust. Good luck
These diets often claim that they are historically more accurate to the human diet, however, I can’t imagine the cavemen taking mineral supplements! They didn’t walk around with water bottles and salt was rare.
I lost a huge amount of water and suffered severe dehydration symptoms. It took me months to be able to drink water without feeling nauseous. More months later I still have muscle weakness..... My body doesn't exactly like accepting water or electrolytes back...
How are you now.
What, Bacon is bad for you? I thought it was natures perfect food. Bacon even makes salad taste better, "EVEN SALAD"
It’s junk, I don’t eat it, never have. So many healthier alternatives.
And what pisses me off is sparkling water for a time had high sodim for taste. Perfect for keto. All these karen natzis complained and now most sparkling water has no sodium. Im MUCH sicker on keto since dasni discontinued their high sodium sparkling water line. Bubly sucks!
Fat also hydrates the body. For every 100g of fat the body wins 110ml of water.
Dude, sodium is sodium, that does not matter when eating bacon... Bacon contains lots of sodium, saying that it is "bad sodium" does not matter... Just beacuse it does not contain magnesium, calcium or other salts does not mean it is bad "sodium" because they are NOT sodium... And the pink salts barely contains any other minerals other than sodium so just take a mineral supplement instead. This is pure broscience to the max lol
Meats and processed foods are often cured with added salts and sodium preservatives. Are they bad? In excessively high amounts they can be even fatal. On a microscopic level who knows what’s going on. They’re not natural and that should be enough to deter anyone.
I do agree with you about the Himalayan salt I can’t swear by it but I do take it in the mornings I wouldn’t say there’s this huge noticeable difference but at least I could be replenishing something I lose during a workout
I have insomnia and my heart pounding right now not able to sleep and my mouth feels totally drie in a weird way. Just had 500ml with one tablespoon of water and magnesium and hope it will pass
I dont like the saltiness of bacon :) i buy 75% reduced salt bacon. Tastes better and gets rid of so much of that crappy quality salt.
There’s no such thing as cruddy salt or cruddy minerals dude, salt it salt the body doesn’t differentiate ask any nephrologist
Brother your videos are way too complicated
Thank you so much for this explanation! I’ve gone back to Keto about 8 weeks ago, I’m feeling amazing, but my thirst definitely went up and at times I feel like I just can’t rehydrate no matter how much I drink. I take magnesium and potassium citrate and now add electrolytes to my water, and do add the odd pinch of Himalayan salt here and there, but now I understand the importance of having it in the morning and what levels I need. 🩷🩷🩷
