Keto Hope Foundation
Don't get too discouraged. Dietitians Stone and Laura Dority, RDN, LDN, with the Keto Hope Foundation, say that no foods are off-limits on the keto diet. It's about total carbohydrate intake and how you choose to "spend" your carbs. Generally, you should stay under 20 to 40 g of carbohydrates per day. "The exact amount needed to achieve ketosis can vary on the individual, though, with carb prescriptions ranging from 10 to 60 g per day. This total is for net carbohydrates (total carbs minus fiber)," says Stone.
