In this video, we're going to talk about what’s causing you to feel lightheaded on keto. If you feel lightheaded while doing keto and intermittent fasting, you are typically dealing with low blood volume or low blood pressure.

If you’ve recently switched to keto from a high-carb diet, your body was previously retaining fluid. Your body will get rid of the fluid, but will also get rid of important electrolytes in the process.

To prevent feeling lightheaded, you need to replenish your electrolytes. Try drinking water with sea salt. This can help increase your blood volume fairly quickly to eliminate feelings of lightheadedness. Don’t forget to increase your intake of the other electrolytes as well.

Drinking water without electrolytes can make you feel even worse because it further dilutes the electrolytes in your body.

If you're dealing with lightheadedness and you’re not on a ketogenic diet, this could be a sign of weak adrenals, anemia, or low blood sugar.
