Does keto cause diarrhea?

Diarrhea on keto can occur due to several reasons. Firstly, your body may not be accustomed to digesting the high levels of saturated fat required on keto. Reduce intake of oils like MCT oil, butter, and coconut oil to see if symptoms improve. Additionally, excessive consumption of certain vegetables can overwhelm gut microbes. Stick to safer vegetable options such as lettuce, cucumber, tomato, and bell pepper, and gradually reintroduce other vegetables as your gut adjusts. Consider adding fermented vegetables to support gut health. With time and dietary adjustments, diarrhea should subside on keto.
