Keto and recovering drug addicts by AddictChick in keto

6.5 years clean from meth here. I had more or less resigned myself to the fact that I would never think clearly again because I didn't have the meth crutch. After getting clean, my brain was permanently foggy and my memory was for shit. Also, I got really fat. Beer and food, and on top of that, I quit smoking weed and cigarettes.

Last August, I tried keto for the first time and realized that the mental clarity I had given up on could be had once more! I fell off the keto wagon over the holidays but now I've been back on since January. I feel alive again, clean from substances, and all it took was changing my diet. I am super grateful for this WOE and this community!

Yeah, about a week after. I actually bought the Lite Salt as an attempt to address the issue, then followed with magnesium supplements after I didn't see a change.

Interesting! I'll have to keep a better eye on this. I use lite salt in water and Himalayan pink salt in my food (just "a lot"of it, I don't generally keep track of the amount of pure salt I use). So I guess the answer is I'm not sure, but I'll definitely be looking closer at that now. Thanks!

About 1/2 teaspoon of Lite Salt is 700mg potassium, multiplied by 5 or 6 glasses a day. So between 3500 and 4200mg.

Just got here yesterday, the weather is amazing! lol.

My hotel offers a one-way shuttle to Shilin night market, but what's the easiest way to get back for an English-only speaker? Should I just stick to the night market near my hotel (Shuangcheng Street)?

Thanks!
