Frequently Asked Questions
How can I manage social situations and dining out on keto?
Inform your hosts or servers about your dietary preferences. Focus on protein and non-starchy veggies when dining out, and make smart choices based on the menu.

Yes, you can use spiralized vegetables like zucchini for 'zoodles' or cauliflower rice as low-carb substitutes for traditional pasta and rice.
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.
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.
