JeffN 106 Posted October 2, 2017 I know you said you are taking a stool softener if that is the case increase your Water intake. The stool softener will extract water from your bowels and dehydrate you more and dehydration will cause more issues for you. I remember when I did Atkin's I was severely constipated and had to go to the Emergency room, boy that was not fun for me or the nurses. 2 southernbellair79 and Berry78 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
LillieDuFran 127 Posted October 2, 2017 My rather simple question, have you changed laundry products? I've had similar symptoms and it was that easy. If you have, you don't have to get rid of the detergent. Just add 1/4 C vinegar to your rinse cycle. Hope you are feeling better. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Second, what is your Water intake? If you are drinking coffee or any caffeinated beverage you have to add double the amount of Water to cover the caffeine intake because it will dehydrate you. The itching could be a sign of dehydration. You have to drink at least 64oz of water plus the water you intake for Protein and food. Second, your body is going through a drastic nutritional change make sure you are getting the right Vitamins. Third with this nutritional change comes new allergies, likes, and dislikes. Look at what you are eating. Low carb diets could cause Keto Rashes. Look up, Keto Rash or Candida. Oh wow - I've never heard of Keto Rash before so I looked it up - here is a quick YouTube to watch...totally makes sense! Thanks! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
