10 Side Effects of Ketosis
Ketosis Side Effect #10: Insomnia
Another problem that many people experience when they first go through ketosis is insomnia. This can occur because of serotonin and insulin imbalances that occur as the body sheds stored minerals.
It can be wise to have a small snack that contains some carbs before going to bed for the first few days of your ketogenic diet. This can help your body adjust to the new diet and can also help you fall into a sleep. Eating a high-carb meal about an hour and a half before bed will cause you to crash when you’re ready to go to sleep, making it easier to fall into a state of rest.
