so are you fine you’re getting water

attention weight gain on keto this video

is for you okay there’s several

scenarios okay it could be that you’re

low in vitamin b1 vitamin b1

deficiencies will create fluid retention

in edema and your ankles actually little

hold water so you just need more

nutritional yeast okay next one low

potassium okay so this is interesting

because if you’re not consuming enough

vegetables you’re not going to get

enough potassium okay but if you’re

consuming a lot of vegetables okay and

you’re getting water retention it could

be you can’t digest all that fiber it’s

too much for the microorganisms that you

have and there’s two types of fiber

soluble and insoluble and both of these

types will retain fluid and water and

this is why sometimes when you eat a

salad you’re thirsty I mean it’s kind of

weird like there’s not a lot of salt and

salad but you consume the cell and also

now you have to drink a lot of water why

is that because the fiber retains fluid

and your body will just will get thirsty

because it’s demanding that fluid to

then bulk up to make the stool form and

go through the system so fiber is a

hidden source of fluid attention and

let’s say you don’t have enough microbes

to digest this fiber and you get

constipated okay in fact that can even

increase your weight by 3 4 even 5

pounds but it’s just water weight okay

it’s just water it’s not fat so if you

get bloated or constipated after

introducing all this vegetable then you

need to cut it back because you’re not

ready to digest all those vegetables so

cut it back to a small amount and start

consuming that for a while and slowly

build up so you can actually gain water

retention by doing a low potassium diet

by not consuming enough vegetables or by

consuming too many vegetable so you’re

gonna have to test out and see what is

going to work for you if you can digest

these vegetables in the fiber and you

have enough microbes then that’s what

you want to do but you might have to

work up to it because we really want the

potassium from the leafy greens big

potassium pushes out the fluid okay so

you could always take a potassium

supplement as well or electrolyte with

high in potassium if you’re doing a lot

of salt and no potassium that’s another

way that you can retain fluid and of

course if you’re consuming too many

hidden carbs because carbohydrates

retain fluid a low carbohydrate diet

gets rid of fluid but if you’re doing

carbs you’re actually like a

fluid-filled sponge you’re just

retaining a ton of fluid okay

so these are the factors you’re not

going to gain actual fat on keto it’s

just going to be mainly water light all
