Anyone else find that these levels are too low for them?

I was incredibly low energy by the end of day 3 for my water fast- I could feel the blood rush down from my head when I got up slowly. i also felt like I could've fainted at least 3x doing that. I took an LMNT on top of this recommended dosage and all of my energy came back, lightheadedness disappeared along

I'm currently at 214 lbs and am a 5'11 woman. I must mention that I've already experienced lightheadedness as a result of POTS prior to water fasting- to which the remedy is more sodium and water intake (for POTS).

I was reading some of the earlier forums and it seems that the numbers were initially too high for some people, but yeah, I found that they're too low for me. I just don't want to go too high.
