Our 25 Favorite Keto Chicken Recipes

Chicken dishes are so popular that they are the third most widely consumed food in America, following closely behind grain-based desserts and yeast breads. In other words, chicken is the most widely consumed keto-friendly food in the United States. Most chicken dishes, however, come with a carb-rich side like rice or potatoes or chicken that is breaded with high carb ingredients, making a high-protein keto food into an unhealthy meal. Fortunately, there are many low-carb vegetables and keto ...

Elizabeth Got Her Health & Energy Back with Keto

Elizabeth Got Her Health & Energy Back with Keto

I think I first saw mention of keto on the hypothyroidism subreddit. I became curious first because my doctor had already told me I needed to restrict carbs and second because this hypo sufferer on reddit claimed keto allowed her to lose a ton of weight easily. I was duly suspect. The only time I had been able to lose significant weight was with a Herculean effort in college. I ate a starvation diet, tracking my calories through Weight Watchers. I exercised religiously. I didn't go out with ...

Low Carb Chips for Keto: What to Buy and How to Make Them Yourself

Low Carb Chips for Keto: What to Buy and How to Make Them Yourself

Chips are usually just crunchy carbs slathered with salt and oil. The best examples of this are tortilla chips and potato chips. Their palate-pleasing combination of salt, fat, and carbs makes it unnaturally easy for us to overeat them without feeling full. This is why many of us can easily eat an entire family-sized bag of chips in one sitting (and on a larger scale, this is one of the driving forces behind the rising rates of obesity and type 2 diabetes worldwide). The solution is ...

Best Low Carb Rice Substitutes for Keto

Best Low Carb Rice Substitutes for Keto

Some of the most delicious dishes feature rice as a key ingredient. Risotto, fried rice, paella, and sushi, for example, all rely on this starch-filled grain, but are there any rice varieties that won’t pack on the carbs?

That being said, you can still get your rice fix by using low-carb substitutes and keto recipes. Let’s begin our journey through the ...

Fortunately, there is a simple solution that’ll help your hair regrow just as thick as before: eating more of the right keto foods. (Plus, you can even prevent hair loss with the same strategies!)

Complete Guide to Keto Camping, Hiking, and Backpacking

Complete Guide to Keto Camping, Hiking, and Backpacking

There is no better time to get out and surround ourselves with nature, but what are you supposed to eat? Ironically, the most popular camping foods, meals, and snacks are so highly processed that they bear little resemblance to real food. From the chips to the sugar-filled trail mix, the hotdog buns to the deli salads (and let’s not forget about s’mores), most classic camping foods are packed with processed carbs and far from being healthy. That being said, it is surprisingly simple to ...

Are Pork Rinds Keto? The Many Benefits Of This Zero Carb Snack

Yes, pork rinds are keto-friendly and used widely by people on low-carb diets. That said, it’s still easy to be fooled into thinking that this humble keto snack food is unhealthy. Though they are crisp like chips (and are typically found in the same grocery store aisle), pork rinds share very little else in common with those high-carb options. In fact, unflavored pork rinds are one of the few zero-carb snacks you can eat on the ketogenic diet. Plus, they can be used as a keto substitute ...
