In this video, we’re going to talk about three important low-carb high-fat tweaks you can make to a traditional ketogenic diet.
If you’re ready to take keto to the next level, check out these tips:
1. 20-50g of carbohydrates
The keto diet allows you to have 20-50 grams of carbohydrates. A lot of people count the carbohydrates in their vegetables. However, even vegetables like spinach, kale, bell peppers, and spring greens can quickly put you over the 50 carb limit.
The problem is, you need lots of vegetables to get all of the vitamins and minerals you need to support a healthy body.
My opinion is that you shouldn’t count vegetables (aside from high-carb vegetables, like potatoes) in your daily carb allotment. You can have as many low-carb vegetables as you want each day. Don’t let your carb count restrict your vegetable intake.
You want to aim for 7-10 cups of vegetables each day.
2. Add intermittent fasting
The ketogenic diet doesn’t normally include intermittent fasting. However, intermittent fasting can enhance the ketogenic diet significantly.
Even if you eat healthy foods, you still trigger insulin to some degree. If you eat all day long, you end up always having higher insulin levels.
Intermittent fasting allows your body to have a break from high insulin levels, which will help fight insulin resistance and boost weight loss.
3. Add nutrient-dense fats
A traditional ketogenic diet does not specify which fats you should be consuming. There are unhealthy fats that you should avoid—especially vegetable oils, soy oil, and non-organic cream. These can all be harmful.
Instead, consume healthy fats, like avocados, olive oil, fatty fish, and grass-fed animal products.
