    Recently I have been fainting quite a bit. This has never been an issue for me in the past, so it worries me a bit.
    Ive looked on aajonus.net and the only thing I’ve really found was to eat more (every 2 hours or so)

    Does anyone else have any experience or recommendations to solve this issue? Thanks

                @ela I guess just try out different primal foods you haven’t tried. It could be something with glucose and ketosis. Im usually in ketosis but on a date I ate hella fruits and then I felt the disaster of unstable energy levels dependent on eating sugar. So then I was out of ketosis and obviously when the sugar was all used I had a huge energy crash and lowkey felt dizzy and lightheaded like you. Only like 2 days later I felt completely the all day infinite energy of ketosis 😂
                So could it be an issue with eating low carbs but just enough to not be producing ketones?

                  @ela By race or nationality?Even tho that still should't affect it as much, depending where you live.

                    @ela
                    From personal experience it is probably electrolyte issues try eating high mineral foods or some “toxic” salted cheese urine therapy also really helps with this

                      Let's take a step back. what are you doing whilst your a fainting? are you sitting, standing are you doing intense work (stress) or perhaps menstruation time. Fainting can also be anemia or onset diabetes related. there are so many confounding variables.

                      Try & get into a feedback loop with us about what you are typically doing whilst fainting.

                      My personal take? I would feel faint and dizzy whilst being closer to keto but when i got in an extra 100-150 grams of carbs a day with more dairy and fruit, Gone.

                        @Liverlover she would probably feel better if she just incorporated more carbs like i did when i was dizzy & faint. I can almost promise her on that.

                            Eat more often, veg juice for appetite. Eat your fruit meal daily

                                  @iblamedoctors Yes could be dehydration from not drinking enough fluids like milk and blood.
