I Can’t Drink Now Like I Used to a Few Years Ago (26M), is that Normal?
During college and a few years after (maybe til 23/24) I drank almost weekly and don’t get drunk that easily. In terms of beers, maybe I get tipsy at about 6 and give up at 10.
But now, I drink 2 and I get tipsy, and maybe tap out at 4/5.
Is that normal?
I think https://charliefoundation.org/ is a good intro
I recently did another round of keto. It was very easy to search up starter diet plans, and recommendations (and plenty of folks will sell you their goods and services ) and just start doing it.
There will be an adjustment time at the start , look up keto flu. It’s mostly just being grumpy.
Keto-ade can be great for taking the edge off keto flu. It’s basically a home-made concentrated sports drink - artificial sweetener, potassium & magnesium salts and a lot of water. All the fluid & electrolytes help your kidneys filter out the metabolized fat that would otherwise linger in your bloodstream.
In addition: you don’t have to spend any money to do keto, in this post below there’s a diet cheat sheet, just print that out and follow it’s pretty easy. All the data’s on the web, YouTube as well. Happy to answer any questions you got, this was my pandemic passion project, so I did a ton of research while diving into solve a high blood pressure issue myself. And it did work I don’t have high blood pressure anymore
diet doctor is an excellent resource. Everyone of their articles and pages has citations and references. Just hover over the number. You don’t have to sign up for anything, in fact I never did. But it’s a great resource regardless of their slightly slick marketing veneer
The book fat lot of good is a great resource. Especially this pdf food guide
If you have medical issues and want to be help adjusting to keto while treating them : morbid obesity, diabetes, high blood pressure… Virta health is a great medical, paid coaching platform. They’ll help you titrate down medications as you ramp up on keto
The only thing I actually recommend you buy, is the keto mojo, but that’s because I’m a data-driven person and I like to see figures to keep me honest. Keto mojo
Excellent fun reading, but not required at all, is why we get sick you can find it on the high seas pretty easily as well. You don’t have to buy it. It’s just motivation around the mechanics.
And if you’re like me, and listen to medical lectures while driving, working out, walking… I highly recommend low carb down under a medical lecture YouTube channel with real doctors from mostly Australia. But they dive into the various mechanisms
