I doubt it would help but what do I know lol. Be careful though because the diet can be dangerous long-term if you do not do it correctly. For the short-term, you may want to make sure you get enough potassium in your diet while you are transitioning. Avocados, salmon, and spinach are all low carb foods that contain a lot of potassium. Anyway, I wouldn't recommend the diet unless you are monitored by a physician (who knows what they are doing). Also, the transition will be **** and it will probably take more than three weeks to even become adapted to the diet. Good luck.
