7 Main Products for Keto Lifestyle

 

So, as you already understood, the main food in the ketogenic diet is fat, which should make up 75% of the diet. These are, of course, the most beneficial vegetable oils (olive, coconut), nuts, fatty fish, cheeses and dairy products.

 

Proteins should account for 20% of the diet. They need to get from different types of meat, eggs, mushrooms. It is important that meat products should not be processed (sausage and sausages contain sugar). Along with proteins you need to remember about fiber, because it is very important for a good metabolism. On ketodiet allowed any green vegetables, as well as tomatoes.

 

Carbohydrates should be no more than 5% of the diet, and they certainly must be "useful" and light. These are, first of all, berries and fruits with low sugar content. By the way, about sugar: it (as well as any flour and, alas, pasta) will have to be abandoned altogether. The same applies to any alcohol and sugary drinks.

 

Note: despite the lack of restrictions on calories, stay within your daily allowance. If you eat 4000 kcal daily, even the most effective diet will not bring results.

 

Before choosing such a diet for yourself, be sure to consult with your nutritionist: keto ration and any other low-carb diets are dangerous for anyone suffering from metabolic disorders.
