I seemed to have been diagnosed with pneumonia last week after having what started as a sniffle/sneezing then coughing and sweats. I’m just over one week after diagnosis.
My sugars were up to 22 a few days back now hovering around 11/14. My BP is 132/86 to 130/85 I haven’t been on my low carb and training for sometime so decided to return to low carb yesterday 1000cal day.
However I’m completely exhausted and wonder if it’s best practice to eat normal 2000cal until the pneumonia has passed and I’m feeling good enough to return to low carb and my training.
Or will the lower calories and carbs be helpful with recuperation.
Any medical buffs out there please feel free to comment.
Thanks in advance Dadio
