How Much Water Should I Drink on Keto and Why?

The amount of water you should drink on keto is calculated by multiplying your body weight (in kilograms) with 70 (ml). So, if you weigh 80 kg, you should drink 5.6 litre water. It is extremely important that you drink enough water because it is required to metabolize existing and dietary fat and burn it down as energy.

What is Keto Flu? Can I Avoid It?

WHAT IS KETO FLU? CAN I AVOID IT?
Keto flu is nothing but your body’s way of punishing you for not being on keto soon enough. Ha-ha just kidding.
Keto flu is your body’s reaction to consuming less carbohydrates. When you go off any old habits, your body has a way of reacting towards that change. Smokers experience withdrawal symptoms when they try to quit smoking. You might be shocked to know that sugar reacts with our brain just like addictive drugs! So, letting it go is like getting over a breakup – uncomfortable at first, but better for you in the long run.

How Much Weight Can I Lose on Keto and How Soon?

The amount of weight you can lose on keto can be calculated by multiplying the square root of your age with the exponential dividends of your weight and then subtracting the seconds you lost while reading this completely made up equation. If you didn’t get the drift, that was a brief intro to my sarcastic abilities.
While your bucket list might demand losing weight in 1 month, keto has its own time-table to follow. Losing weight on keto depends how your body responds to it and that is based on various factors.

How Long Do I Need to be on Keto to Get Desired Results?

Frankly, I don’t know.
And trust me, nobody does.
Firstly, your definition of desired results needs to be put under the scanner. You might want a 6 pack or target a healthy BMI or simply want a quick fix for a party. When you want a summer body, that also depends on how far your summer is. And while you might think this year is definitely the one, it might take you until next year to be where you want to be.
