    Question keto diet...zero or few carbs

    hey guys im using the keto diet during my cutting and i found my optimum nutrition whey protein has 3g carb per serving...i have around 3-4 daily. can 9-12g carb a day mess up ketosis or should i have ZERO carbs daily? i dont mind buying a zero carb whey protein but i thought id ask before i waste the money.

    not at all, you can have up to 30g of carbs a day and not risk ruining your ketosis

    It can vary from person to person.
    Shoot for 0. Some ppl get kicked out of Keto on 20 per day.

    Don't worry about getting kicked out of ketosis, you don't have to stay there 24/7 to loose

    interesting....I have been at about 100 grams of carbs per day for like 16 days now how much more dramatic would the fat losing effect be if I dropped to 0-30??

    Exponentially. 100g of carbs is pointless imo; you'd have more energy replacing that 400 calories with oils/fats and going straight keto.

    Even the strict entry phase for the Atkins diet allows for 20g daily. You're fine. And remember, fiber isn't counted as a net carb; so eat your veggies and almonds.
