There’s a lot of misinformation out there about health issues that might make a keto diet a bad fit for you. For the most part, it’s exactly that: misinformation. ❌📰
Contrary to popular but incorrect sound bites, you can follow a keto diet if you’re living with type 1 diabetes, chronic kidney disease, or fatty liver disease. In fact, not only is keto not dangerous for any of these, it’s actually been proven to improve them. (In type 1 diabetes, where the underlying condition cannot be reversed, keto has been shown to significantly improve blood sugar control while reducing the amount of insulin needed and reducing the incidence of unpredictable highs and lows.) 💉📉
No gallbladder? No problem! 🙌 Keto doesn’t have to be an ultra-high fat diet. The most important thing for success on keto is keeping your carb intake very low. You don’t need to load your food up with butter and oil. Most people who’ve had their gallbladder removed don’t need to make any modifications to keto when they focus on the low carb aspect rather than the high fat aspect.
Have problems with eggs or dairy? Great news – you can do keto without them! Eggs and dairy don’t give you anything you can’t get from other low-carb foods. You can get all the protein, healthy fat, and vitamins & minerals you need without eating eggs or dairy foods. 🥑🥦🥥🥩🐟
(If you have medical conditions, don’t start a keto diet without medical supervision.)
