# Dry Mouth
When there are ketones present in the body during the process of ketosis, it results in dry mouth. This happens because of the combination of low consumption of carbs and low sodium. Glycogen stores get utilized which leads to dehydration. And the fluid lost results in the dry mouth which boosts your thirst. Along with dry mouth, sweet or acetone smell breath also takes place.
It can be reduced by drinking liquids and broths. Also, people on ketosis should stay hydrated to avoid dehydration.
