These 3 things may put you in the hospital UNLESS your on a ketogenic diet
1) Put salt on everything you eat or put it in your water to drink throughout the day
In a standard diet, excess salt can lead to Water Retention:
Sodium is concentrated on the outside of your cells, in contrast with potassium, which exists predominantly inside your cells. The amount of sodium in the extracellular fluid helps determine the amount of water your body retains. If your sodium intake is high, your kidneys cut back on releasing water into your urine so you can balance out the excess sodium surrounding your cells. This results in an increased blood volume due to water retention. Symptoms include edema, or swelling, in various parts of the body.
High Blood Pressure and Hypertension
Related to its role in maintaining blood volume, sodium can also affect blood pressure. Hormones act on your kidneys to help regulate how much sodium and water they excrete into urine. The higher the sodium level in your blood, the higher your blood volume, because your kidneys excrete less water in order to dilute the sodium in your blood. The increase in blood volume, in turn, raises blood pressure.
Ingesting too much sodium, especially over long periods of time, can lead to a chronic increase in blood pressure as your body continually battles to maintain water balance. In addition, long-term overconsumption of sodium can damage the walls of your blood vessels and predispose you to developing high blood pressure, or hypertension.
Considerations
Consuming too much sodium in the presence of other disorders or dietary factors might increase your risk of stomach cancer, kidney stones or osteoporosis. Chronic high salt intake can damage the lining of your stomach, making it more susceptible to infection by Helicobacter pylori, a bacterium that can cause inflammation and lead to tumor growth. In addition, consuming excess salt can increase the amount of calcium you excrete in urine and may contribute to the development of kidney stones. This effect is also related to osteoporosis, as your body may leach calcium from your bones to make up for that lost in your urine.
2) Consume lots of Saturated Fats
Saturated fat, found in meats, and high fat dairy products, have been shown to increase inflammation and weight gain. They have also been linked to heart disease, diabetes, and arthritis.
3) Taking MCT Oil for increased Energy
Medium Chain Triglycerides absorb into the body quickly as an energy boost when you are on a Keto Diet. If you are eating a standard diet and do this...especially with a spiked insulin...this can be stored on the body as fat
