5 days in to the carnivore diet and I had a twitch that could not stop. I literally lost sleep because of it. After a redbull and starchy food it went away.
Electrolyte loss. Carbs make your body retain water, when you go low-carb you will piss a lot more fluids out and this requires you to consume more salts or you'll have low electrolyte problems like muscle twitching or headaches. This is called "keto flu".

It was hell. I probably realized my body relies too much on carbs at that point. But I said to hell with it. My diet is balanced other than the occasional redbull.

Never had the keto flu, but you will piss an insane amount. Started back with Keto and had a two hour meeting, I haven’t ran that fast to the bathroom since I was 5.
