Ultimate Flu Cure

About

What is the Keto Flu? When the body begins the ketosis process, your body may show some flu-like symptoms in response to the lack of sugar and high fats. Symptoms may include exhaustion, nausea, weakness, and inability to focus. The apple cider vinegar in this drink is believed to help fight sugar cravings, while the lemon juice and salt add electrolytes to recover. Drink this every morning during your Keto flu!

What are the health benefits of this Keto flu cure?

Other than the benefit of relieving Keto flu, this beverage is full of nutrient-rich ingredients that may help improve your overall health. For instance, lemon can potentially boost your immune system and reduce inflammation. ACV may improve digestion and lower blood sugar. Not only is this beverage nutritious, but it is also warming, refreshing, and tasty.

Does it matter what type of salt you use?

It seems like Keto electrolyte drink recipes always call for sea salt. Do you really need to always pull out your flaky sea salt or pink Himalayan salt for these drinks? Nope! You can use regular table salt too. Most would say, however, sea salt tends to have a better taste and retains more nutrients.

What Keto sweeteners can you use?

You can use a variety of Keto-friendly sweeteners to sweeten your electrolyte lemonade. However, remember that even some sweeteners add net carbs to your diet, which can make your Keto flu symptoms feel even worse. Liquid stevia is the best option, but erythritol and monk fruit are known to have less aftertaste.
