Chicken zero carbs again
what can you say about chicken who doesn't like chicken it's also high in beneficial nutrients
and a great source of protein
Pork & Bacon
pork is an alternative to beef & lamb with bacon being especially popular with the keto diet, but as bacon is technically a processed meat eat it in moderation
Pork and bacon are considered zero carbs make sure you read the label on any bacon and avoid it being cured with sugar
other low carb meats are
Jerky
Turkey
Veal
Venison
Seafoods
Fish and other seafoods all tend to be incredibly nutritious and healthy.
They’re particularly high in B12, iodine and omega-3 fatty acids
Like meat, almost all types of fish and seafood contain next to no carbs.
Ideal keto food fits any meal plan perfectly
Salmon zero carbs
is one of the most popular types of fish for good reason.
It’s a fatty fish, which means it contains significant amounts of heart-healthy fats in this case omega-3 fatty acids.
Salmon is also has the added benefit of being loaded with vitamin B12, iodine and a decent amount of vitamin D3.
Trout zero carbs
Same as salmon rich in omega 3 and important nutrients
Sardines zero carbs
these are another oily fish and have the added bonus of containing almost every nutrient your body needs
Other low card fish
haddock
halibut
cod
tuna
herring
Eat more avocado low in carbs

Dairy
Full fat diary products are another excellent source of low carb foods, but be careful to read
the labels and avoid anything with added sugars
so dairy includes
Cheese
heavy cream
full fat yogurt
and Greek yogurt
Fats & oils
Healthy fats and oils are acceptable on a low carb diet
butter has zero carbs once the bad boy for having high amounts of saturated fats it fits in
nicely with a low carb diet, tip try and buy grass fed butter as it's higher in nutrients
Extra virgin olive oil has zero carbs and it is the healthiest fat on the planet choc full of powerful anti inflammatory and anti antioxidants
