High-Fat and Low-carbs Keto Food Combinations
High-Fat and Low-carbs Keto Food Combinations
What's basic for a keto-diet is a high-fat and low-carbs food intake with protein addition as per your need. That can be tricky to track sometimes. You don't always know what the food on your plate is going to do to your body once it gets devoured.
Yes, it's easy to tell that a two-tiered chocolate cake is not really diet-food material. This may not be the case always though, specially when you're on a diet. You need to stick to a limit of carbs yet not starve yourself so eat enough fats and proteins. Tricky game, right? Well, not anymore.
Here is a basic food guide to help you stay on track and get those T-shirts to fit again. Remember, your goal is to achieve a high fat and low carbs diet for everyday, starting today. Because what do we say to diet? Today.
High-Protein Low-fat Food:
Chicken, Egg whites, Fish, Whey Protein, Lean beef and low/non-fat Cottage cheese have a really good amount of protein to offer without adopting another layer of fat. Eat these when you are low on protein but your daily fat intake level has reached its maximum.
Moderate Fat and Protein:
Duck, Salmon, Bacon, cottage cheese and Whole Fat Milk provide a good boost to your body's fat and protein requirements. These are great if you wanna get to your goal with an about-equal progress of fat and protein intake.
High Fat:
Butter, Egg yolks, Oils, Flax seed and Avocados have loads of healthy fats for you. Use these when you've had enough protein and the fat-meter is running slow. I mean low.
