Why Gluten-Free Prairie Oats can be a great fit in the Keto Diet

What is the Keto Diet?

The ketogenic diet is a very low-carb, high-fat diet. Keto demands the dieter to drastically reduce carbohydrate intake and replace it with fat. This reduction in carbs puts the body into a metabolic state called ketosis. When we think about Keto – we generally think…well… most starches and grains are all carbs, so no carbs means no oatmeal right? Wrong! Pure Oatmeal is one of the most nutritious of all grains. But can it also fit into the Keto diet? Yes! Pure, Raw (not pre-cooked) oatmeal is also a great source of resistant starch; an important component in the Keto diet. And 1/4 cup to 1/2 cup (dry measure) contains only about 12 to 24 g of available carbs. Gluten-Free Prairie Oats and are a perfect choice because the large flakes are digested more slowly and will help keep your blood sugar levels more stable. Also, Oats are high in fiber, something that can be missing in a Keto diet. So enjoy a bowl of cool oatmeal. And to ramp up the protein, consider adding high-protein cottage cheese along with some peanut or almond butter. I also add cardamom and cinnamon for little savory and sweetness to the bowl. Depending on your serving – the bowl should contain a about 15 and 30 g of carbohydrates. Perfectly suitable for the Keto diet.

More about Resistant Starch

Resistant starch is a starch that is resistant to digestion. It functions as a fermentable fiber which helps feed the friendly bacteria in your gut. Studies show that resistant starch can help with weight loss, shrink belly bat and benefit heart health. Oats are a great way to get resistant starch into your diet.

Bonus: To increase the resistant starch, cool your oats before eating them.

What happens when you quit keto?

Going off keto may lead to gains in muscle mass. And that's especially good news if you're over 30 years; as we age, muscle synthesis begins to decrease. Less overall muscle mass means we burn fewer calories at rest and can eventually lose strength and mobility.

foodnetwork.com - What Actually Happens to Your Body When You Stop the Keto Diet?

Better cholesterol levels — The absence of fiber-rich fruits and the abundance of meats high in saturated fat may have spiked your blood cholesterol. Slowly decrease fat and increase antioxidant-rich carbs by way of dairy, whole grains, fruits and vegetables. Try adding about 10 to 15 grams of carbs per day to the same meal for the first seven days. For example, if you have been consuming only 20 grams of total carbs each day, try adding 10 grams more of carbs to dinner each night for a week. Seven days later you'll be up to 90 grams a day, and you may even sleep better, because eating carbs at night usually leads to more restful sleep. Stay at this carb level for a few days and see how you feel before introducing more.
