So, what can you eat on Keto?!

by Caroline Kabiritsi

  • Proteins:
    Poultry: Free-range Cornish hen, quail, goose, pheasant,
    chicken, duck, and turkey.
    Fish and Seafood: Cod, tuna, scrod, anchovies, mackerel,
    flounder, catfish, trout, mahi-mahi, halibut, sole, sardines,
    salmon, halibut, snapper, and calamari. Always opt for wild
    caught fish to avoid toxins present in commercially reared
    fish.
    Grass-fed Meat: These include beef, venison, goat, and
    lamb. Meat from wild animals are also acceptable; however,
    avoid sausages and meats that come with sugary sauces and
    those covered in breadcrumbs. Choose the chunks of meat
    with more fat since they contain less protein and more fat.
    Pork: Boston butt, pork chops, ham pork, and loin. When
    choosing ham, be on the lookout for added sugar.
    Bacon and Sausages: Preferably, you should buy these at
    specialty health food stores. If this is not possible, always read
    the labels to avoid those which contain fillers such as soy or
    sugars.
  • Canned Tuna and Salmon: Canned tuna and salmon are okay to consume while you are on the keto diet. However, avoid seafood rich in fillers, breaded seafood, and fried seafood.
  • Vegetable Protein Powders: Protein supplements such as
    whey protein, hemp protein, pea, and rice are acceptable.
    Whole Eggs: This includes chicken eggs, and quail eggs
    which you can prepare through any mean desired; fried, soft
    or hard boiled, deviled, scrambled, or omelet style.
    Shellfish: Oyster, mussels, lobster, shrimp, crab (not
    imitation crab that contains additives), clams, scallops, and squid.
