Frequently Asked Questions
What is the difference between ketosis and ketoacidosis?
Ketosis is a natural metabolic state where the body burns fat for fuel. Ketoacidosis, on the other hand, is a dangerous condition that can occur in uncontrolled diabetes.
Can I have beans and legumes on a keto diet?
Most beans and legumes are relatively high in carbs, which can make them challenging to fit within keto carb limits. Consider alternative protein sources.
Are there keto-friendly alternatives to traditional pasta and rice?
Yes, you can use spiralized vegetables like zucchini for 'zoodles' or cauliflower rice as low-carb substitutes for traditional pasta and rice.
Can I eat nut flours and nut butters if I have nut allergies?
If you have nut allergies, you can opt for seed flours (e.g., almond flour alternatives) and seed butters (e.g., sunflower seed butter) as substitutes.
What's the difference between total carbs and net carbs?
Total carbs include all types of carbohydrates, while net carbs subtract fiber and certain sugar alcohols. Net carbs are often used in keto diets to gauge carb intake.
