Dr. Berg talks about the cause of having diarrhea while on the ketogenic diet. There are two common reasons why you have diarrhea while doing the ketogenic diet; One, because you are not used to consuming the amount of saturated fat. Two, you are not used to digesting the number of vegetables being recommended. He also talks about what to do, what vegetables to temporarily avoid, and what is safe to consume.
