Message: <blockquote data-quote="Alexandra100" data-source="post: 2300780" data-attributes="member: 429870">Starting a low carb diet is a known cause of increased urination. This means it is important to drink extra to avoid dehydration (and so constipation). Eating low carb long term can also lead to constipation, as I know to my cost, and I think I have seen posts by others here who also struggle with that. Because drastically lowering carbs also limits the fibre one is consuming, the constipation problem tends to persist. Happily, the drastic rate of urination does not. You might like to follow up the subject by Googling "<a href="https://www.google.com/search?client=safari&rls=en&q=low+carb+weight+loss+frequent+urination&ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8" target="_blank">low carb weight loss frequent urination</a>" I don't particularly endorse any of the entries but taken together they seem to give more or less the same message. I vividly remember reading somewhere Jenny Ruhl's saying that starting a keto diet can make you pee your brains out, but sadly I can't track that quote down.</blockquote>
