Ketogenic food list

Make sure you always read labels just in case there are hidden carbs! Some of these food items are more healthy than others but all in all this is a pretty good ketogenic food list. It’s best to mix things up, some people think that a ketogenic diet is all about eating bacon and eggs all day long but it really isn’t. Try to get a good mix of fat, protein and most of your carbs from low carb veggies. They fill you up, give you vitamins and help with digestion. I try to aim for 65% fat, 30% protein and 5% carbs, you can always browse through my blog to read more about the ketogenic (low carb) diet, find some good recipes etc. That being said, here’s a ketogenic food list for you :)
