20 Genuine Keto RecipesKeto recipes are known for their delicious taste and unique combination of ingredients that make them both low in carbohydrates and high in healthy fats. The ketogenic diet, or "keto" for short, is a high-fat, low-carbohydrate diet that has been shown to have numerous health benefits. Some of the benefits of a keto diet include weight loss, improved blood sugar control, and decreased risk of certain diseases such as heart disease and certain cancers.
Additionally, the keto diet has been shown to improve brain function, increase energy levels, and promote overall health and well-being. With a wide variety of delicious and easy-to-make keto recipes available, it's never been easier to enjoy the many benefits of this popular diet. Throughout these recipes, some include an ingredient or two, that might not be familiar to some, for which I include some details:Coconut aminos.
Coconut aminos is a soy sauce-like sauce with a dark tint. However, they are not manufactured from coconuts; rather, they are made from the sap of the coconut plant. The sap is extracted, kept, and allowed to mature, where it ferments during this time as a result of the natural carbohydrates it contains. The finished product has a savoury flavour and barely any coconut flavour. Because coconut aminos are healthier than soy sauce, people frequently prefer them.
Many health claims, however, are not supported by science, but rather by folklore. However, as coconut aminos are gluten and soy-free, they are suitable for those who have a soy or wheat allergy. ErythritolThe group of substances known as sugar alcohols includes erythritol. In items with minimal or no sugar, the majority of them serve as low calorie sweeteners, where their structural characteristics allow them to activate the sweet taste receptors in your tongue.
The sugar alcohol erythritol seems to differ significantly from the others. It has a lot less calories to begin with:four calories per gram of table sugar2.4 calories per gram of xylitol0.24 calories per gram of erythritolIt still has 70% of the sweetness of sugar despite having just 6% of the calories. 10% of the erythritol you eat is not absorbed into your blood and instead goes to your intestines.
NOTE: Because of this, erythritol at very high doses may have some adverse effects on the digestive system - one study showed that 50 grams of erythritol in a single dose increased the possibility of nausea and stomach rumbling.
