Can you be a vegetarian and a ketonian? Sure you can!
TRANSCRIPT:
While eating meat and other nutrient-dense animal-based foods certainly makes it easier to consume a low-carb, moderate protein, high-fat, ketogenic diet, it’s certainly possible to experience the full benefits of nutritional ketosis eating a mostly plant-based diet. Adding in eggs can supply an excellent source of complete proteins and healthy fats to go along with ample amounts of nutritious non-starchy and green, leafy vegetables.
Using plenty of fats such as coconut oil, olive oil, avocado oil, macadamia nut oil as well as macadamia nuts, almonds, and walnuts will be the lifeblood of your vegetarian keto lifestyle. Just because you don’t eat meat doesn’t mean you can’t be keto.
