Why Electrolytes Matter on Keto
When following a ketogenic diet, your body:
Flushes more water and electrolytes
Requires higher mineral intake
Needs proper sodium-potassium balance
Benefits from adequate magnesium
This calculator helps prevent keto flu and maintain optimal energy levels by ensuring proper electrolyte balance.
