how to get body into ketosis

[jb160]

HOw do I get my body into ketosis, and how will I know that it is in ketosis or not?

Follow Mr. X's CKD calculations available above (see sticky).

Also, the use of R-ALA or ALA can force you into ketosis more quickly although EXTREME care must be taken.

High Intensity Cardio on an empty stomach works as well.

Brain Fogg, Lack of Hunger, "Fruity" smelling Breath are all signs. You can also use keto-stix available at most vitamin shoppe's and some pharmacy's.

Follow Mr. X's dietary guidlines though and you'll be in ketosis for sure.

All these signs......

Not to mention kind of a funky smelling body odor.

When you get used to it, you'll be able to tell if you're in just by how you feel.

You can use Ketostix, but I would recommend getting Lipostix instead. They're bit harder to find, but you don't have to be in Ketosis to burn fat. As long as you're in Lipolysis (sp?), which is what the Lipostix measure, you're burning fat!! I have a brand of sticks that measure both Ketones and Lipids...

I get hungry sometimes when in ketosis, if your getting your fats in and avoiding carbs, dont stress about it at all.
