It takes time and effort to get used to the new form of cooking and your new lifestyle. The same is with the keto diet. It comes with small challenges that may hinder your diet.

Total is the account of every single gram of carb consumed and is easier to calculate. Net carbs, on the other hand, is calculated by subtracting fiber and sugar alcohols from the total carbs. These are excluded because the body does not break them into glucose and have no impact on the blood sugar level. However, it is not as easy to calculate net carbs.The solution: The first step is to increase the amount of home cooking. Eating out and excessive snacking can get you off-rack from the allowed number of net carbs per day. Make sure you use recipes with information of everything. The last step is to get yourself a keto tracking app. The more you keep a track of the nutrients in the food you are cooking and eating, you better you can balance the amount of net carb intake per day.
