Atkins Diet and Smelling

[DroppinLikeItsHot 52]

My surgery is 2/19 and my NUT put me on Atkins until 2 weeks before, then I have to switch to liquid. But - since starting Atkins I feel like I smell badly. Like BO or onions or something. Anyone else have this experience?

Sounds like ketosis, very common in low carb diets. You may get bad breath too

Making sure you get enough Water and magnesium helps with Keto stink. Epsom salt baths or foot soaks are a relaxing way to get extra magnesium in.
