What Can Cause Fatigue And Poor Memory While On A Low Carb Diet?

I have been on a low carb diet for about a month now. I have lost no weight. I am always tired even after I feel I slept well. I gain weight no problem. I feel exhausted and forgetful. I had a hysterectomy about 7 years ago and feel like I have gone down hill from there

Hello,

Possible causes of your symptoms are irritable bowel syndrome or chronic insomnia or chronic fatigue syndrome or anxiety neurosis or anemia or accumulation of toxins in your body etc.

So do regular exercise, do yoga and meditation regularly. Use tablet pantoprazole before breakfast for one week.

Get it done hemoglobin status, thyroid profile, serum b12 level.
