Electrolytes recommendation? (For keto flu)

6 replies

Hi, am on a VLCD and feel rough- I assume it's keto flu. Someone mentioned that an electrolyte replacing drink might help. Any recommendations? Don't know if some are more/less suitable when on a VLCD.

Drink a glass of water with half a teaspoon of salt x

Thanks nicky7654 I genuinely didn't realise it was that simple! Will give that a try!

Dioralite

Thanks toddlertea. I think I'll pick some of that up- I see you can buy it flavoured. I did try the salt in water - it was drinkable but I think I'd prefer a flavoured version!!

Blackcurrant dioralyte is the best! You can normally get own brand from boots/Superdrug/Asda etc too although the taste isn’t as ribenary

onehanded thanks that's the one I bought. It was quite drinkable. I'll use that for a few days to see if it helps.
