The table: This is how much fruit you can really eat on keto

In the left column you can see different types of fruit in alphabetical order. To the right, you can see how much (in grams) of that vegetable you can eat to reach 5 g or 10 g of carbohydrates.

In doing so, you will also directly recognize that there are varieties that are more suitable for the keto diet – for example, different berries. On the other hand, particularly carbohydrate-rich fruits are less suitable, because who enjoys 25 g of banana or 40 g of pineapple?
