Effects of the Ketogenic Diet on Mood and Appetite

Today I want to cover nine signs you’re in ketosis.

Testing your ketones when you first start the keto diet can be helpful. But, the problem with testing your ketones long-term is that once you start to burn ketones efficiently, the tests aren’t very accurate.

Thankfully, there are nine clear signs that can tell you if you're in ketosis or not.

Top signs of ketosis:

1. No keto transitioning symptoms (keto flu, keto fatigue, keto rash)

2. Weight loss (initial water weight)

3. Loose clothes around the waist

4. An increase in energy

5. A boost in cognitive function

6. Less inflammation and pain

7. Feeling satisfied after eating

8. Better mood

9. No appetite
