first up, which deli meats are keto friendly?

Keepin' it keto? The good news is, meat and cheese can 100% be a part of your meal plan (Wooo! Bacon!). But which deli meats are best for your Keto diet depend on what you want to accomplish and how you plan to get there. In this nifty little guide, we break down three different types of Keto dieters, with meat and cheese recommendations for each one. the classic keto-er If a good, ole fashioned Keto diet is what you’re aiming for, you’re going to want to heavy up on the fats. And you’ll be surprised at how hard it is to hit that 75+% goal on fat intake, even when you’re eating traditionally fatty foods. Look to higher fat content cheeses like our Bacon & Horseradish Cheddar Cheese Wedge with 9 grams of fat per serving, or our creamy Port Salut with 8 grams. For meats, you can’t beat our Legacy Cheddarwurst for upping your fat macros at 17 grams per serving, or our Originals No Antibiotics Ever Chorizo Chub with 7 grams. Oh and if you’re looking for some Keto recipe inspiration, we’ve got some simple suggestions here. the muscle maker If you’re trying to build or maintain muscle, you may want to keep your protein macros a little higher than the standard 25% of your daily calorie intake. Some experts recommend a gram of protein per pound of body weight, or more if you’re really hitting the gym often. If that’s you, look to higher protein options like our Originals No Antibiotics Ever Harissa Chicken with 12 grams of protein per serving. Or hit up your local deli counter for a pound of our Top Round London Broil Roast Beef with 13 grams of protein per serving!

what’s the healthiest deli meat?

Short answer: Turkey. Fat content in turkey is much less than that in chicken, pork, and beef. Plus, it’s typically made with less salt because it’s already #blessed in the flavor department. But that said, ‘healthy’ can mean something different for everyone. Deciding which foods are the best choice starts with having clear health goals that are specific to you. Talk to your doctor or nutritionist to find out what healthy can mean for you.

first things first:--what exactly does ‘healthy’ even mean?

Well the FDA and USDA are pretty clear on when brands can use the word “healthy.” When it comes to deli meat, they define “healthy” as products containing no more than:

· 3g of Total Fat

· 1g of Saturated Fat

· 60mg Cholesterol

· 480mg Sodium

But let’s be honest, numbers are kinda boring. At Dietz & Watson, we wanted to make finding the healthiest deli meats as easy as possible, so we created the Healthier Lifestyle seal. When you see the seal, you know you’re getting delicious, premium meats that meet and go beyond the standard FDA and USDA definition of “healthy,” and are lower in fat, saturated fat, sodium, and cholesterol. Now that you know the basics, here’s a quick guide of what to look out for at the deli counter depending on your specific goals.

what if I need to keep my heart healthy?

Keeping your heart healthy can mean more than keeping an eye on saturated fats, especially if high blood pressure is a factor. So we developed the first ever reduced sodium deli meat in 1978. Ask your local deli counter for Dietz & Watson Low Sodium Oven Roasted Turkey Breast, with 50% less sodium, or go for the No Salt Turkey Breast. When in doubt, look out for ‘No Salt Added’ or ‘Reduced Sodium’ on our labels. Our Originals No Antibiotics Ever Angus Roast Beef and Gourmet Lite Virginia Brand Ham fit the bill

what if I’m looking for options with no antibiotics ever?

For some folks, there’s more to healthy eating than nutrition. Like many Dietz & Watson products, our Originals line offers foods that are free from added hormones, nitrates or nitrites, artificial ingredients, and fillers. Another great thing about our Originals line? No antibiotics ever! Many of our Originals options also happen to be certified USDA organic and meet, if not exceed most organic standards. Win, win. got all that? when in doubt remember these--three key things when choosing a healthier deli meat: 1. Talk to your doctor or nutritionist to find out what healthy means for you. 2. Look for the Dietz & Watson Healthier Lifestyle® seal for options lower in fat, sodium, and cholesterol. 3. And look to our Originals line for products with no antibiotics ever and Organic options. the wrap up There you have it. There are plenty of ways to live that healthy life and still enjoy meat and cheese, especially if you’re on a Keto diet. So head to the deli, order up some turkey and provolone (and maybe also a side of bacon), and consider those health goals crushed.
