Foods that suit a keto diet

To achieve nutritional ketosis, you should maintain a low intake of carbohydrates (less than 30 grams) daily.  Knowing what to eat will help you succeed in your keto journey. 

#1 Low carb vegetables: opt for non-starchy vegetables like asparagus, lettuce, kale, olives, broccoli, tomatoes, spinach, peppers, cabbage, green beans, zucchini, eggplant, cucumber, and cauliflower.  Cookvegetables with butter or cream and use a drizzle of extra virgin olive oil to toss your salads, to add fats to your diet. 

#2 Eggs are perfect keto foods, one large egg has less than one gram of carbs.  Make sure to eat whole eggs as most nutrients are found in the yolk. 

#3 Cheese, for example cheddar, mozzarella, cream cheese and blue cheese will add mostly proteins and fats to your diet. 

#4 Berries such as strawberries, blueberries, blackberries, and raspberries are rich in antioxidants and are excellent low carb fruits.
