Diet change
Hi there, for nearly six years I was greatly mistreating my body with poor diet and little exercise but recently I decided to fix that. I have been make gradual alterations like going to the gym and started eating fruit again and reducing calorie intake but a few days after I started I have been experiencing symptoms such as dizziness, sick stomach, regular bowel issues and lack of sleep. Could this be linked at all to the change in diet?

Keep your water intake good
Drink atleast 2-3 litres of water daily
If you have actually switched to a healthier diet it cannot cause these symptoms
