Sometimes going every other day
Is it painful when you go?.. otherwise it simply could be a case of "less c**p in less comes out". The waste element of the food you are eating creates far less bulk than fibrous carbs so you'll go less often.I think too much protein meat eggs bacon sausage
In that case its not really constipation just a benefit of keto.. less loo paper useage..!Not painful just don’t go as often and not daily sometimes
Yes I am given to understand psyllium is very good for this, but wasn't sure if keto suitable. As said earlier though it can make you toot a bit! So maybe be selective about when you use it.It is often something which requires a bit of adjustment - it is the biological equivalent of GIGO, the foods are more nutritious, more is digested, so there is less residue.
Even my huge salads - in hot weather I can eat one twice a day, don't result in much to get rid of.
If you are concerned, adding a scant teaspoon of psyllium husk either as the husk or as flour can help but it requires a lot of water to soak into it - you can get stomach ache and indigestion as it sucks your stomach contents dry, so a glass of water before eating and another one afterwards are a good idea.
Will try that but not when I'm going to church!Keto is such a vague term, but as psyllium husk is usefully low carb and effective in such small amounts, I'd recommend it as a thing to try.
Is Psyllium husk powder acceptable with keto? I have a friend who swears by it but she not diabetic though. It can make her toot a bit too but if your constipated you may be doing that anyway!
