Zero Carb Food List that Keeps Keto and Ketosis Simple

[@RuledMe]

Please note that this video is specifically for ZERO carb items. If you're looking for a general food list for keto, this video will help out more: kzbin.info/www/bejne/rXzLnZWdps2BjdU

[@RuledMe]

@World Culture & Natural Landscapes No, ketosis is not dangerous. There's a condition called ketoacidosis that can be dangerous (this only happens to Type 1 diabetics, though). If you're a type 1 diabetic, you are likely keeping an eye on your sugars and ketone levels. If you're not a type 1 diabetic, then you do not need to worry about this as you can produce insulin.

Generally-speaking, this is good information, thank you for that.

[@RuledMe]

I don't particularly advocate it, but it does fall into the zero-carb food list (which is a very limited list and not truly indicative of what a complete keto diet should look like). I tend to agree to avoid extra processed foods, but there are canned meats out there that are not packed with unhealthy ingredients. It's always going to be best to eat whole foods in general like you said, though.

I have seen several videos dealing with the Keto diet, but this one was simple, plain, and had enough information to be quite useful. I have tried to adopt the Keto diet but find that carbs are hard to avoid and somewhat addictive...at least for me. For those times when I get a real craving, especially between meals, I try to keep vegetables like olives, radishes, green peppers, or celery on hand.

[@RuledMe]

Sugar specifically is very addictive and has shown signs of withdrawl in the brain, so you're definitely not along on that one. I appreciate the kind words about the video, thank you! If you're really wanting to go keto, I think going cold turkey is usually best. Avoid all sweeteners (even keto-friendly ones) for 3-4 weeks and the cravings and withdrawls will go down significantly. Sounds like you already have some great veggies on hand to help out with that!

[@shelliedoyle4900]

Try Saint agur blue creme and use celery as a dip if you must snack. Ingredients are cheese 50%, milk, water, milk proteins, emulsifying salts, lactic acid. Its basically a blue cheese dip, and 3.7 carbs for the whole 150g pot. I can't eat a whole pot & I'm 4 + years on keto.

[@RuledMe]

Sadly most people with diabetes or prediabetes don't go on keto. The ADA still recommends some 100-150g carbs per day to manage diabetes which is still pretty high in my opinion. Eating out you can usually order a bunless burger, steak, and side dish of salad or broccoli with butter. It can get a bit frustrating (and what you get to eat can be a bit boring), but I don't see that changing all that much. I can find something on every menu in every restaurant I go to, but it's not going to be a 'fun' dish, so I mainly cook at home because I can make something I enjoy and keep it affordable for what I'm eating. If I go out, it's usually to a place that can do wings since I don't make them at home often. There are occasional restaurants that will have low-carb offerings (there's a place near me that does keto sushi rolls using seaweed only), but they're far and wide, and most of the time don't exist where you live.

This is one of the better "zero" carb food lists I have seen in the last few weeks. I just wish that total carbs were talked about more often than net carbs. I think most people can figure out what the net carbs are if total carbs and fiber are given. But when people give net carbs they rarely give you how much fiber is in the food for those that follow the total carb way of eating.

[@RuledMe]

Thank you! Generally if you're eating very low net carb foods, they won't often have high total carbs.

There are lots of cheeses that satisfy the less than 1g carbs per 100g - Blue cheeses are usually at 0/100 - "Buffalo" Mozzarella is 0/100 - Camembert should be 0/100 - Brie 0.5/100 There are many others, but it also depends on which brand you get. Some brands add sugar/carbs, especially the cheaper ones.

I lost 70 lbs in 3 months flat on strict keto, cold showers every morning, and 5-10 minutes in the North Atlantic winter ocean 2 to 3 mornings a week before breakfast. 275 to 205, Jan 1st to April 1st. I didn't know at the time about cold water's effect on creating brown fat (which apparently helps metabolize fat, and helps regulate glucose), but I think that may have played a big role in the quick fat loss.

counting carbs really isnt so bad. i would much rather count carbs than calories. now, of course i realize that calories count. however, the rationale behind keto is that it is carbs that stimulate appetite, so that the fewer carbs that one eats, the less hungry a person will feel, which increases the chances of a person not overeating. besides, i like meat. i would rather eat a lot of meat than some wimpy food like tofu

[@be3tlejuyce461]

Some keto foods will be higher in total carbs but have either a lot of fiber or a good amount of sweeteners (that will not spike blood sugar). That said, you do have to be careful nowadays as there are many "keto" foods that will be very high in carbs for their calorie count. It's usually best to just stick with whole foods where possible.

I think that's a great amount of weight loss - that's around 10 pounds (4.5kg) each month. Losing more weight than that starts to get into unhealthy territories, so I personally don't think you should be disappointed in that.

If you eat too much protein, your body will break it down and convert it to carbs, so limit protein too - use the fattier meats with their skins (with fish and chicken).

It's time the experts in anatomy studies ie doctors accept this unchallengable fact that every human is unique and no two human bodies are identical not even in twins.

It would do well for us to watch the changes happening, jot down notes about your observations a/w a little detail about food intake. These notes will prove to be a treasure to guide oneself on the do's and don'ts in the journey ahead.
