  • Yet another induction flu question..please read!

    Okay, so today is day one for me. I have already eaten and drank 24 of of water. I have done this so many times and NEVER had the induction flu so I have no idea what to expect...

    My question is this..I am feeling VERY lightheaded and dizzy. Could I be feeling the effects already or is this something else??

    Please help me out w/ this one. Thanks in Advance!!

      dizziness can be a symptom of dehydration. 24 ounces of water isn't that much...I've already had 75 ounces....Drink some water, sit down and see if it passes.

        During induction, your body can become deficient in electrolytes/minerals. You can often remedy this with naturally salty (and I DON'T mean table salt) foods or those with high mineral content (such as shellfish). Or (and I find this helpful 200% for helping with dizziness, sluggishness and cramps) take calcium, magnesium and potassium along with lots of water. You can get calcium eating cheese, bones, shells. A pinch of Epsom salt (fully dissolved in water) is a Magnesium source. Potassium can be bought inexpensively in tablets.
