    Hi there, i had bought some supplements as i was getting
    strange blockage feelings in my head as if enough blood was
    not running through my head and felt as if my head was going
    to explode so i bought these supplements:

    I am also taking three table spoons of avocado oil per day.
    I think i may have gained some weight today because i feel
    really bloated and i checked with the ketone strips and it
    is less dark but on the moderate bar, yesterday it was the upper
    square after moderate. is it possible you could do everything
    right on atkins woe but still gain weight on some weeks due to
    the body balancing something???



    Thanks To All.

    Did you see a doctor?

    These Supplements allowed?
    Yes, they are allowed during all phases of Atkins.

    i feel really bloated
    What are you eating?

    How much water are you drinking?

    You might want to post a menu.

    The color is not important. A darker does not mean you are burning more fat. In fact, you could be burning fat without changing the color of the sticks.

      Drinking 2 litres of water a day, eating Roasted Chicken a full plate x1 and
      roasted lamb 1/2 plate x2 so eating three times a day with
      Brussel sprouts and tomatoes and cucumber which = 20g coming from
      vegetable carbs.

          You might do better with more water.

          How much is one "plate"?

          You don't have to eat 20 net carbs from vegetables. There are other sources of carbs you can choose from... so that you add variety to your diet.

          My guess is that you are overeating protein. Are you tracking your foods in FitDay?

            As a supplement? Is it on that page you linked to?

            It's a bit tricky when you eat stuff that has no nutritional info.

            these capsules i am taking are barely counting to 3 grams if carbs....
            3 carbs is 15% of your 20 net carbs. Quite a lot, in my opinion... especially to use on supplements.

              I'd recommend seeing a physician before self-medicating with supplements. Nothing there sounds dangerous, but then again I didn't think dieter's tea was dangerous either. Turns out the stuff causes dependency (just an herb, right?) and can lead to loads of health problems later. Ask a good physician, and I bet you'll find some solid answers.

                I don't think you should be taking all of those supplements at the same time. Those blends are made to help with one problem but taking them all may not "cure" everything and could actually be dangerous with overdosing.

                Are any of the herbalists listed on the site near you? These look like excellent herbal remedies but I would consult with an experienced herbalist/homeopath to come up with a proper mix that will work for you.
