I get the Keto flu quite regularly. Being in ketosis especially in the first few weeks, you tend to urinate a lot. That leads to dehydration and loss of salt in the body. I know I'll get keto flu when I urinate three or four times in a row and then I get this weird tingling sensation in my fingers and limbs. My heart starts beating rapidly and I get muscle twitches.
The simple fix although it tastes quite disgusting is to drink soy sauce. Although after I drink it, I have to drink a glass of water to get rid of the dryness and salty taste in my mouth. After about twenty minutes, my heartbeat returns to normal and the tingling sensation goes away.
