While the Keto Diet May Help You Lose Weight Here Are 4 Reasons You Should Quit Theres no doubt that the keto diet is still surging in popularity even as experts warn that the low-carb high-fat plan isnt for everyone and may even be damaging to your heart. While lots of people have found weight-loss success with keto there are signs you should watch for that could mean its time to quit. Here are four red flags straight from nutrition pros. 1. Youre Losing Weight Too Fast Experts recommend that you lose only one to two pounds per week. If you are losing weight too fast chances are that you will gain the weight back when you go back to eating your regular foods Sandra Arevalo RD spokesperson for the American Academy of Dietetics and Nutrition told POPSUGAR. You might also be depriving yourself of foods that not only taste good but are also good for you. She explained that mineral and vitamin deficiencies can be common on the keto diet.

It usually kicks in two to three days in and can last up to two weeks. Any longer than that and you should be concerned. Keto flu is a nefarious sign; its your body communicating to you that something is dreadfully wrong said Monica Auslander Moreno RD nutrition consultant for RSP Nutrition. Those kinds of symptoms should be a loud and clear message to stop a keto diet and resume normal balanced eating. 3. Youve Been on the Keto Diet For a Long Time A long-term keto diet can have profoundly negative effects on your health. The lack of diverse prebiotic fibers from those excommunicated foods like beans potatoes and fruits may cause a disturbed microbiome environment which can affect everything from immunity to bowel motility and digestion Monica told POPSUGAR. And we often see elevated liver enzymes a sign of liver dysfunction on prolonged keto diets as well as indicators of cardiovascular disease like elevated triglycerides or hypercholesterolemia.
