Is Krusteaz Honey Wheat Pancake Mix Keto?

Krusteaz Honey Wheat Pancake Mix is not keto-friendly because it is a high-carb processed food that contains unhealthy ingredients like sugar, soybean oil, and enriched flour.

Too Much Carbs!

Krusteaz Honey Wheat Pancake Mix should be avoided on keto because it is very high in net carbs (71.43g of net carbs per 100g serving).

Contains High-Glycemic Sweeteners

Krusteaz Honey Wheat Pancake Mix contains high-glycemic sweeteners like sugar, honey, and dextrose. These sweeteners can raise your blood sugar level and prevent you from reaching ketosis.

Contains Soybean Oil

Soybean Oil is a highly refined oil that is prone to oxidation and may cause inflammation in the body.

Highly refined oils are usually extracted using high heat and chemicals. This process strips out the nutrients from the oil and replaces them with harmful chemicals.

It is important to get your fats from healthy sources so your body can burn clean fuel while on ketosis. You may check out our list of best and worst oils for keto here.

Contains Enriched Flour

Enriched Flour is a controversial additive that is included in our list of food additives to avoid for keto.

Food additives are potentially harmful to health and should be avoided as much as possible.

Most of your diet should come from minimally processed foods to achieve a healthy weight loss on keto.
