In this podcast, I want to talk to you about lean meat or low-fat protein on a ketogenic diet plan and why it is NOT a good idea.   

Consuming lean protein could cause protein starvation. Anytime you’re consuming protein on the keto, consume it as a whole food (with the fat).   

Examples of lean protein: • Skinless Chicken Breast  • Turkey Bacon


The truth about ultra low-fat protein:  

• Whey protein is not a natural product. All of the fat has been removed.  

• It takes certain nutrients to metabolize protein—consuming lean protein could create nutritional deficiencies.  

• Fat triggers bile. So if you’re not consuming enough fat, bile will dry up, and it will increase the risk of gallstones.   

• Fat is important for the brain, nerves, cell membrane, endocrine system, and immune system.   

• Fatty fish/meat is the best protein source.
