Keto dry eyes

Hi all,

I am on my 7th week of keto, I have been enjoying it so far but lately my eyes have been so incredibly dry where I can no longer wear my contacts. My eyes are naturally a little more dry than others and I have read that keto can dry your eyes. My mouth is also excessively dry. Do I need to just up my water intake? Any suggestions will help. 

 

Thank you!

    I too have experienced dry mouth, as has my mom who started keto 3 weeks ago with me. I am prone to dehydration so that may have something to do with it. Just carry a water bottle with you everywhere and make sure you get at least 64 (preferrably 100) oz a day. Also make sure you're getting enough electrolytes. BTW, I'm no expert, just giving my 2 cents.
