I learned that low carb diets cause your body to rapidly excrete sodium. The solution is obvious. I love salt so fixing it was easy for me. When I get light headed, I know I'm not getting enough. My blood pressure, by the way, is always usually around 110/80

Thanks Kari. Yes I have in fact been told since this happened to try some Himalayan salt, even a pinch on my water. Thanks for reminding me. I have been sprinkling it on my food. Il note that though esp as I feel light headed in the mornings for some reason which freaks me out. I may put a little salt in my water I drink through the night and see if it helps
