Cutting sugar and processed food
The simplest rule that makes keto work: eat real food.
Keto works best on real, minimally processed food. Cut:
- Sugar and sugary drinks (soda, juice, sweet tea).
- Ugali, rice, chapati, bread, mandazi, potatoes and other starches.
- Packaged snacks and anything with sugar high on the label.
Eat:
- Meat, fish, eggs, omena.
- Green vegetables (sukuma wiki, spinach, managu, cabbage).
- Healthy fats (avocado, oil, ghee, coconut).
Ketofiti tags foods green, amber or red so you can see at a glance what fits.
