[QUOTE="ajbod, post: 2528478, member: 544995"] When i first did keto pre-diabetes, i had a very scary night where as i fell asleep i stopped breathing. Thankfully i woke up with a start, but it was frightening. On googling the symptoms i found on a keto site the explanation. due to electrolytes being lost through urination, the electrical signals for involuntary actions, ie breathing were interrupted. Their recommendation was to make a drink up with 1/2 tsp salt (sodium), 1/2 tsp Lo-salt (potassium) and 2 tsp food grade Epsom salts (magnesium). I used only 1 tsp of Epsom salts as that is where the phrase going through you like a dose of salts comes from, and i can confirm that is correct.;)This also stopped cramps which i used to get in my feet very unpleasant.:woot:. Nowadays i take a magnesium supplement and salt and potassium seem fine naturally. A cup of bouillabaisse a day as a soup will replenish things also. [/QUOTE]
