Are Eggs Keto?

Eggs are excellent for keto because they are low in net carbs and high in healthy fats. They are also minimally processed and free of harmful ingredients.

Low in Net Carbs

Eggs are good for keto because they are low in net carbs (1.2g of net carbs per 100g serving).

It is important to limit your net carb consumption to 20g - 30g per day to stay in ketosis.

You can calculate your ideal daily net carb allowance by using this keto macros calculator. Then use the serving calculator below to determine a serving size that fits your net carb budget.

Excellent Source of Healthy Fats

Eggs are a great source of healthy fats because they are a nutrient-dense whole food.

It is important to get your fats from healthy sources so your body can burn clean fuel while on ketosis.

Whole Food

Whole foods are packed with nutrients and should be a staple of a healthy keto diet.

Eating whole foods lowers the risk of cancer, heart disease, and type 2 diabetes.

You can both lose weight and improve overall health by eating mostly low-carb whole foods on keto.

Minimally Processed

Eggs are minimally processed and free of harmful ingredients like non-keto sweeteners, highly refined oils, and food additives.

It is important to check both macros and ingredients of your foods to achieve a healthy weight loss on keto.
