If your end goal with keto is weight loss then you should closely watch the carbs coming from snacks.

1.Nuts & Seeds

A handful of nuts like almonds, walnuts, macadamia nuts, pecans or Brazil nuts is the fastest snack you can have when you are craving something crunchy. Eat them instead of potato chips and you will get a lot of health benefits.

Nuts have plenty of protein, provide a lot of heart-healthy nutrients and make them the perfect low carb snack.

Pay attention to the quality and choose organic nuts.

Why should we soak the nuts?

Soaking nuts is necessary and vital. They have Phytic acid and enzyme inhibitors that prevent them from being digested properly.

Phytic acid is found naturally in the coating of the nuts and seeds.  Eating unsoaked nuts can cause health issues.

Phytic acid is considerate an “anti-nutrient” because it binds to the minerals in the digestive tract like iron, zinc, calcium, magnesium and prevents the body from absorbing them.

Benefits of Soaking Nuts and Seeds

  • it begins the process of germination which makes the protein and vitamin content raise.
  • it removes anti-nutrients like phytates, tannins, and goitrogens.
  • the Vitamin B potency is increased.
  • improvement in growth of beneficial bacteria ( lactobacilli) which is essential for the intestinal and colon health
  • it promotes the growth of healthy enzymes vital for healthy digestion

Here are the specific times for the nuts and seeds that we use most often in as low carb snacks:

  • Almonds 8-12h
  • Brazil Nuts 3h
  • Cashews 2-4h
  • Flaxseeds 1/2h
  • Hazelnuts 8-12h
  • Macadamia 2h
  • Pecans 6h
  • Pistachios 8h
  • Pumpkins Seeds 8h
  • Sesame Seeds 8h
  • Sunflower Seeds 8h
  • Walnuts 4h

Please, keep in mind that roasted nuts will not activate, so if you want to get rid of the anti-nutrients,  try to find raw nuts at the store.

How to soak nuts:

in a glass bowl, add the nuts you want to snack on. Cover them with warm distilled, purified or filtered water and add 1 tsp Celtic Salt. Keep the bowl at room temperature and let the nuts soak for the recommended time.

The soaking water will contain all the toxic enzyme inhibitors we are trying to get rid of. Make sure you give the proper attention to rinsing the nuts as well.

2. Avocado

Excellent source of healthy fats, nutrients, and fiber. Its creamy texture makes avocado even more delicious.

Cut a few slices, sprinkle with some of your favorite condiments, some olive oil, and there you have a filling yet tasty low carb snack. You can, also make guacamole and serve it with sliced vegetables.

According to the USDA, the serving size is 1/2 avocado (68g). The nutritional values are the following:

  • 109 calories
  • 1.36 g protein
  • 10 g fat
  • 5.8 g carbohydrates
  • 4.6 g fiber
  • 1.2 g NET Carbs
  • 14 mg vitamin K (16% DV)
  • 60 mg folate (14% DV)
  • 6 mg vitamin C (11% DV)
  • 343 mg potassium (10% DV)
  • 2 mg pantothenic acid (9% DV)
  • 0.4 mg vitamin B6 (8% DV)
  • 1.4 mg vitamin E (6% DV)
  • 220 mg magnesium (6% DV)

3. Dark Chocolate

Dark Chocolate is well known for its excellent source of antioxidants. It may improve brain functions, lower blood pressure and reduce the level of stress.

Choose chocolate with the highest percentage of cocoa. I would recommend having a square or two of 85% dark cocoa chocolate. It will satisfy your cravings for sweets.

Trust me! I was a sugar addict.

What can I do if I don’t enjoy Dark Chocolate?

Train your brain to start liking it. Make sure you don’t have any sweets available in your house. Then, the only solution to satisfy your cravings remains eating a few pieces of dark chocolate. It took me three weeks to get accommodated with the taste of dark chocolate. Oh, and don’t forget about all its benefits!

4. Eggs

Eggs – provide high-quality protein and the right amount of Amino Acids.

One egg has only 75 calories but 7 grams of high-quality protein, 5 grams of fat, and 1.6 grams of saturated fat, along with other vitamins, minerals.

Eat one or two boiled eggs as a great keto snack. It’s important to eat the whole egg to get all the proven health benefits. You can also make deviled eggs or scotch eggs.

5. Forest fruits

6. Cheese

Eat 1-2 oz cheese as a low carb snack and you are good to go.

Pay attention to the content of carbs in some cheeses. They may have more carbs than others. Make sure to always read labels when planning to snack on cheese, so you can find the lowest carb cheeses.

7. Bacon

Bacon gives a salty, crunchy and delicious touch to any meal.

Depending on the brand, 1 serving of bacon has 0 carbs.
