Protein found in meat, even if lean, can help you feel fuller during the day and fuel you through physical workouts or labor, even if you're no longer filling up on carbohydrates.
Naturally devoid of carbs, all kinds of meat and poultry are used in keto diet plans — including fatty cuts of beef and pork, which are both rich in a suite of minerals and B vitamins. Protein found in meat, even if lean, can help you feel fuller during the day and fuel you through physical workouts or labor, even if you're no longer filling up on carbohydrates. A limited study found that a diet high in fatty cuts of meat actually slightly boosted good cholesterol levels in the long run for women.
