Is Mustard Oil Keto?
Mustard Oil is an excellent oil for keto as long as it is extra virgin, expeller-pressed, cold-pressed, or organic. It is high in healthy fats and has no carbs.
Unrefined Oil
Most Mustard Oil brands are extracted without the use of high heat and chemicals. Instead, they are extracted using natural methods that preserve the flavor, aroma, and nutrients of the oil.
Refined oils such as corn, soybean, and canola oil are extracted using solvents and high heat. This process strips out the nutrients from the oil and replaces them with harmful chemicals.
To ensure that you're buying unrefined Mustard Oil, look for brands that are labeled extra virgin, expeller-pressed, cold-pressed, or organic.
No Net Carbs
Mustard Oil is carb-free so it won't consume your net carb allowance for the day.
It is important to limit your net carb consumption to 20g - 30g per day to stay in ketosis.
