The ketogenic diet has gained popularity as a natural way to lose weight and improve health. The diet is very low in carbohydrates, high in fat and moderate in protein. While the diet is considered safe for most people, it’s associated with some unpleasant side effects.
Keto flu can be avoided by consuming more electrolytes and fats, adding more salt to diet, drinking chicken broths, doing moderate exercise and staying hydrated. Moreover, addition of prebiotics and probiotics to diet are also helpful in avoiding the keto flu.
Dear Wesam Salah Ibrahim
The dietary characteristics you have already discussed. i will share my experience in this regard
Sometimes, these diets raise uric acid and triglycerides
However, there are controversies in people in opinion

Some of the references which i could gather from literature are having mixed opinion, but definitively all that looks good is not that good, there are issues as well:
Article Ketogenic Diets: From Cancer To Mitochondrial Diseases And Beyond
Article Effects of Ketogenic Diets on Cardiovascular Risk Factors: E...
Article Low-carbohydrate ketogenic diets, glucose homeostasis, and n...
So long-term use probably has morevside effects than desirable so a balance need to be served while using them

Dear,
The symptoms like as nausea, vomiting, fatigue and so on, sometimes referred to as keto flu, may not even be unique to the ketogenic diet. Some patients describe similar symptoms after they cut back on processed foods, or decide to follow an elimination or an anti-inflammatory diet. It appears that the symptoms attributed to the keto flu may happen, not to everyone but to some people, after cleaning up their diet.
Ketogenic diet is a good and suitable for epileptic patients and givinng good results with obese persons for a limited time. Actually, headache, vomiting and weakness may appear as side effects.
Keto flu can be avoided by consuming more electrolytes and fats, adding more salt to diet, drinking chicken broths, doing moderate exercise and staying hydrated. Moreover, addition of prebiotics and probiotics to diet are also helpful in avoiding the keto flu.
