How do you get enough fiber on a ketogenic diet?
Many people eat whole grains like bread and cereal thinking that is the only way to get fiber into their diet. But when you consume real, whole food sources of non-starchy and green, leafy vegetables as part of your healthy low-carb, moderate protein, high-fat lifestyle, getting enough fiber is actually very easy to do.
Nutrient-dense veggies such as spinach, kale, broccoli, cauliflower, and zucchini are all highly recommended and encouraged when you go keto. They not only provide enough fiber for great bowel health, but are also rich in vitamins and minerals as well as food for the microbiome. If you need more fiber on keto, then eat more vegetables!
Top tip thinly slice celery and fry in butter add to meat dishes, increases fibre with minimal carbs, the butter adds in extra fats and it brings the total protein content of the overhaul dish down.

Maybe. But that wasn’t the point we were communicating here. People who go low-carb with the intention of being Keto neglect the importance of adding in fat as well as getting a large amount of protein. Chicken breast isn’t health food in this context and so going for other chicken parts would be a better option with all you outlined here. THANKS for watching!
You are a pearler Jimmy, I love listening to you and I love this idea. Thanks so much for doing it. I must go back and listen to your podcast on the whiteboard web site…I got excited and couldn’t wait.
PS: I had a good belly laugh WITH you not at you when you were commenting on all of those big Dr’s words on your podcast for Keto Cure, real tongue twisters. Then, when I bought the Audio book and heard you say the words I was laughing so hard I had to explain myself to others around me.
You are an absolute legend, keep it up Jimmy, you’re awesome. 👍
