If you’re unfamiliar with a keto diet, here’s the quick explanation: It’s extremely low in carbohydrates and high in fat. Meat, including turkey with skin, is fine to consume, but other Thanksgiving staples aren’t. Mashed potatoes are off limits, along with bread stuffing, rolls, sugary cranberry sauce and desserts.
According to the Calorie Control Council, the typical Thanksgiving meal comes in around 3,000 calories. The council also estimates another 1,500 for appetizers and beverages. According to a post on www.type2diabetes.com, if 50 percent of those 4,500 calories come from carbohydrates, that’s more than 550 grams at one meal
So here are some ways to help during the holiday:
