There is a new diet in town, and everyone is talking about it. Kim Kardashian and Halley Berry swear by it, and it starts with the letter K. Yes, it’s the keto diet! The diet has a massive following, all over the world and with good reason – it’s the fastest way to lose fat from one’s body. Not only that, but it also helps one control the blood sugar and make you healthier over time. But the diet requires one to eliminate carbs almost completely from the diet, which makes it very difficult to sustain. Heck, finding low-carb foods to eat becomes challenging. So here’s some help – a list of low-carb vegetables that you can eat during keto.
Celery
Celery almost has no calories. Low in carbohydrates, the vegetable actually helps you burn calories while you consume it. It’s a great way to add fibre to your diet.
Cauliflower
Despite its mild flavour, cauliflower is plenty versatile. It is high in Vitamin K and C and helps one reduce the risk of heart disease and cancer. You can have it salads or mash it to make keto friendly mashed potatoes (cauliflower.)
Broccoli
Versatile, tasty and extremely fibrous – this has got to be the keto trifecta while choosing your veggies. Rich in vitamin K and C, the vegetable is low in carbs and calories.
Mushrooms
Mushrooms come in handy on days when you’re tired of eating any kind of meat. They’re flavourful, low in carbs and also anti-inflammatory. You can include mushrooms in your salads, sandwiches, stew, and soups.
