Vitamins That Will Help You!
During the Keto diet you might not get all the nutrients you need for your daily life as you once were. I will be telling you the top five supplements you should be taking to help you fill these nutrition gaps.
- Electrolytes
Electrolytes are minerals—sodium, chloride, potassium, magnesium, calcium, phosphorus, and bicarbonate. People tend to lose these minerals the fastest on this diet so its best to have supplements for them.

3. Vitamin D
About 50% of the global population are deficient in vitamin D.[*]This should be taken seriously, considering vitamin D deficiency has been linked to heart disease, diabetes, cancer, autoimmunity.

4. MCT Oil
Medium-chain triglyceride oil (MCT oil) is a form of saturated fat, derived from coconuts, that elevates blood ketones levels. When you consume this oil, it travels quickly to the liver for ketone production. This supplement basically boosts ketosis and provide a quick burst of energy.
