What is a keto diet?

A low-carb, high-fat diet is popularly known as a ketogenic diet. The main goal of the keto diet is to put your body in a state of ketosis, which means the body uses fat instead of carb for fuel. When on a keto diet, you will have to keep your carbohydrate intake low, i.e., not exceeding 50 g per day, and include fats like avocado (butter fruit), egg yolks, oil (olive & coconut oil), meat, nuts & seeds. Also, make sure to consume a moderate amount of protein, depending on your level of physical activity.

Can you eat an omelette on a keto diet?

Yes, egg omelets are keto friendly as they are very low in carbs with the right amount of fats. They are also free from non-ketogenic ingredients like sugars and highly refined oil.

Is an omelette good for weight loss?

Yes. You can eat an omelet any time of the day when you are on a weight loss journey. These are high in protein (approx. 25g), which will keep you full for a longer time. Plus, they are also affordable and ready in less than 15 minutes.
