What about nuts: walnut, hazelnut, almonds? What about oranges (provide vitamin c alternatives)?

@8766c079: Nuts like walnuts, hazelnuts, and almonds are great options for a keto diet, as they are high in healthy fats and low in carbs. Just be sure to watch your portion sizes, as nuts can be high in calories.

Oranges are relatively high in carbs and are not typically recommended on a keto diet. However, there are many other foods that are high in vitamin C that can be included in a keto diet, such as bell peppers, broccoli, and cauliflower. Do you have any other questions about keto-friendly foods?

What is the portion size for the nuts?

dave 2y ago

@8766c079: The recommended portion size for nuts on a keto diet is typically around 1 ounce, which is equivalent to about 28 grams. This can vary depending on the type of nut, as some nuts are higher in calories and fat than others. For example, 1 ounce of almonds is equivalent to about 23 almonds, while 1 ounce of macadamia nuts is equivalent to about 10-12 nuts. It's always a good idea to check the nutrition label and measure out your portions to ensure you are staying within your daily carb and calorie goals.

What about walnuts?

dave 2y ago

@8766c079: Walnuts are a great option for a keto diet, as they are high in healthy fats, low in carbs, and also contain fiber and protein. One ounce of walnuts (about 14 halves) contains approximately 4 grams of carbs, 18 grams of fat, and 4 grams of protein. Just be sure to watch your portion sizes, as nuts are calorie-dense and can add up quickly.
