 Do you really need salt and electrolytes on a Carnivore or Carnivore Keto diet? Yes—and they’re more important than you might think.


I break down exactly why salt and electrolytes matter when you cut carbs and go meat-based. We’ll talk about what happens to your body when you drop insulin and start flushing out minerals, how that leads to the dreaded "keto flu," and how to prevent fatigue, brain fog, and muscle cramps with proper hydration and mineral balance.


I’ll also share practical tips to make your transition smoother—from how to salt your food to choosing the right electrolyte supplements. Whether you're just getting started or troubleshooting symptoms like constipation or low energy, this is your beginner-friendly guide to understanding electrolytes on Carnivore.
