10 Best Keto Nuts
Keto Nut #7: Almonds
Almonds have received quite a bit of popularity over the past few years. Many eat almonds as a snack; however, they can be added as a salad topping, to Greek yogurt, oatmeal, or even a smoothie. Almonds are not as low in carbohydrates as the nuts above; however, if eaten in moderation they can fit into a ketogenic diet.
One serving of almonds contain 3 grams of carbohydrates, 14 grams of fat, and 6 grams of protein. Like other nuts on this list, almonds have several health benefits. This includes decreased risk of heart attack, lower cholesterol, reduced inflammation, improved gut health, and a lower risk for obesity. Almond flour is also a great ketogenic alternative to wheat flour. This will allow baking without having to worry so much about going over your carbohydrate limit.
