Why it fits or not

  • - Lactose is high enough to affect the carb limit quickly.
  • - Added sugar makes the product much worse for keto.
  • - Lower fat leaves less room for lactose and carbs.

How to fit it into keto

  • - Choose full-fat versions when possible.
  • - Avoid low-fat products if carbs or starches are higher.
  • - Choose plain unsweetened versions and check the label.

When to keep it smaller

  • - Do not count dairy as carb-free just because it is unsweetened.
  • - Avoid added sugar, syrups, fruit fillings, and sweet toppings.
