What should you eat on keto? A ketogenic diet shifts your body from burning carbs to burning fat and ketones, and it can be a powerful tool for supporting metabolic health as well as mental health. But knowing what to eat, what to avoid, and how to get started makes all the difference.
Here, Dr. Bret Scher walks you through the essentials:
- The best proteins, fats, and low-carb vegetables for keto
- Foods that can kick you out of ketosis
- A full sample day of meals with net carb counts
- Smart snack options and lifestyle factors that affect ketosis
Whether you're new to a ketogenic diet or exploring it as part of a broader ketogenic therapy plan, the right foundation can make a significant difference in outcomes.
