You Need Less Oil Than You Think

Many people worry keto is expensive because fat costs money. But real keto fats stretch far. A spoon of coconut oil, half a parachichi, three eggs, a handful of omena, these fill you up so completely that you stop snacking all afternoon. That is the quiet money-saver: fewer chapatis, fewer mandazi, less mid-morning chai-and-bread, so your daily spend can actually drop. You do not need to buy fancy imported oils or costly supplements. Kenyan staples do the job: eggs, mala, groundnuts, coconut, avocado, fatty meat cuts which are often cheaper than lean ones. Start with what is already in your kitchen. If money is tight this week, eggs and sukuma cooked in a little ghee is a complete, satisfying keto meal. Keto is not about buying more, it is about eating fuller on simple, filling food. If you have a health condition, check with your doctor before making big changes.
