Pumpkin and the Keto Diet
Pumpkin (one 245g serving) contains 12g of Carbohydrate (with some being from fiber) and so it is considered a Keto food, if you count it as part of the 25g limit of carbs you'll have per day.
But here's the kicker; some of that carbohydrate (3g) is fiber which means that a whole serving has less than 9 grams of carbs in it. That's almost nothing.
I don't care what diet you're on, in my book that counts as a low-carb food which means you can eat as many servings of it as you like and not have to worry.
Pumpkin has almost no fat and a small amount of protien which means when you eat them you'll basically have almost no insulin spike.
Controlling insulin is key when it comes to the Keto diet and adding in pumpkin ensures that you are as safe as can be with that food group.
Eat and be healthy.
