Is Tostitos Smooth & Cheesy Dip Keto?

Tostitos Smooth & Cheesy Dip is not keto-friendly because it is a high-carb processed food that contains unhealthy ingredients like sugar, canola oil, and modified starch.

Too Much Carbs!

Contains Highly Refined Oils

Tostitos Smooth & Cheesy Dip contains highly refined canola oil and sunflower oil. These refined oils are 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.
