Ignore Counting Vegetable Carbs On Your Keto Diet - Dr. Berg

Please provide me with an answer-does this apply also to Paleo diet??

Great to hear this as I love my veggies!

This is legit probably my favorite video by Dr. Berg. Simply because I LOVEEEEE my veggies. I do actually eat the full 7 to 10 cups a day. I feel amazing too!!!

Well that really sucks. 7-10 cups per day?! I CANNOT eat any raw vegetables. I just can't do it. I've tried so many times even chopping everything up as small as I can get it and still can't do it. I cannot stand the texture of leafy stuff in my mouth and trying to swallow it feels impossible. I know I can do smoothies as well, BUT... without adding a bunch of fruits to it as well it just tastes terrible. I mean, I'd rather drink it than eat it, but why does EVERYTHING that is good for us to eat have to taste so gross??

Which vegetables? All non starchy ones? Does celeriac count?

Hello. What about slightly roasted or air fryer veggies? Are we going to count the carbs for those veggies? How are we supposed to count salt/spices? Thanks.

So what whole natural food would you count if you’re eating keto? I’m currently hovering just over 25g of carbs during my OMAD and that’s all from veggies. What is keto that would count??
Thinks like peanut butter maybe?

turns out I'm doing 5 gram only 😅

I am trying keto and liver cleaning. Having a hard time staying under 50g of carbs I start my day off with the blueberry kale kefir smoothy and my fitness pal says 46g of carbs my frozen California vegetables mix 16g 2 heads of celery 50g and my lemon ginger tea 9g walnuts 4g organic spinach & arugula 5g sauerkraut 4g this is all stuff dr berg suggests but I'm usually about 100g of carbs will I reach ketosis??????

I also have 2 chicken breast and a can of (tuna or 3 hard boiled eggs) 0g of carbs

So if using carb manager to log foods, do I just not log my leafy greens...because when I do it sometimes say I am over my 20g of carbs

I’ve been doing keto for a month and counting veggie carbs. This is very interesting. Im still only producing moderate keytones and doing 25 net carbs a day. But i also watched the video on adrenal fatigue which i have and am working with my dr on. Going to keep at the keto and hopefully results will show in the next couple months.

Is more than 10 cups OK? Is there such a thing as too much salad? 😁 I’ve been preparing gigantic salads and dividing them through the day. However, I’m finding I’m enjoying eating them so much, that even when I’ve prepared 10 c. I find I’m eating a lot of it during one non-fast period and there’s not much left for another portion later.... yes I would like to have more then what’s left over, later.

Yes i did yell “STFU” ! at the end. You have app omg yes

Love this but it’s hard to eat that amount of vegetables every day because of cost and how quickly they spoil. You would be constantly in the stores and cost would be high. I love vegetables though. Please help!

I got a salad chopper after watching one of Dr. Berg’s videos and it is one of the best things I have bought for myself. It makes it so much easier to have more greens in my daily meal.

What about cruciferous veggies?

Been doing keto how you suggest for past 5 weeks and already lost 20 lbs and feel so much better. No exercise yet. I have lots of chronic health conditions and pain. Reducing body fat can help reduce pain as research shows. That's what I'm aiming for. Thank you.

Im so glad I found this! I ate more than a cup of pea sprouts and saw that it put me over my carb limit but now I realize it's mundane. Thanks Dr. Berg!

Thank you Dr. Berg! Eating 16oz of leafy mixed vegetables with my meal every day!

Am I supposed to track all the extra veggies I put into my leafy salad such as tomatoes, mushrooms, celery, onions, etc?

So I couldn't exclude the carbs of let's say a kale juice, right? If I strain it, the fibers will be left out and they wouldn't be subtracted from the carbs, right?

Found a wholesale veggie market nearby and finished a huge bowl of Dr Berg recommended 7cups of mixed salad and I am absolutely stuffed!

What about other vegetables? Beets, carrots, peppers, onions, broccoli, brusel sprouts, avocado?

So happy to have found this. Answered my question. Thanks Dr.Berg.

Everything else I real says that you MUST count net carbs from every source, including vegetables so I’m not convinced

What happens if you Keto 3 days, regular diet 1 day, as a cycle? Does going in and out of Keto cause a problem going from ketone to carb energy and back again or does it keep both microbiome types alive for diet flexiblity but give keto benefits most of the time?

7-10 cups in kg means 1656g-2365g??? 2 kilos of vegetables??? or what

This video is sooo confusing. You say "vegetables" but the then you only talk about leafy greens and not about carrots, zucchini, peppers, eggplant. What about those?

What vegetables should I eat 10 cup of cabbage equals to 15 or 20 g carbs

Vegetables are toxic

How many grams are ten cups?❤

So if your doing intermittent fasting and you are only eating 1 meal per day...does that mean you have to eat 7-10 cups in that one meal?

Seven to ten cups per week I could see, but not per day, especially on Omad- I think this number is not realistic. Two cups per day could work.

Thank you so much for this! (And thank you for directing me here from the response to my comment on another video.) This is GREAT News! And explains it perfectly. Have An Excellent Day!

I eat a bag of brussel sprouts and pass the fifty carbs quick because i want my potassium. Do i count these carbs? Can i eat endless vegatables?

Dr Berg you did not answer the question regarding other vegetables? You say all vegetables but your example only refers to greens. Please answer!!!!!!!!!!!!

I’ve been craving chipotle so bad and was so happy to see they have kept bowls with super green leafy blend and it’s delish! I get extra meat and guacamole 🥑! My cheat meal isn’t even a cheat meal now

it is unclear to me what he means by this. for example, let's take peas. even if one considers peas to be a starchy vegetable, and thus subject to having its net carbs counted, what about when it is just one of the lesser represented vegetables among several in a package of frozen vegetables? besides, even the notion of counting the carbs from peas is to me questionable, since the radio of its net carbs to its fiber is about the same as it is with low-starch vegetables, so that having, say, twice as many low-starch vegetables as starchy ones, may come out to being the same amount of net carbs, so then why just not count either one? but then if that would be the case, that means we could have as much peas and beans as we want without worrying about counting the carbs....and so we may end up eating as many net carbs as one who doesnt follow the keto diet at all....oh and then there is those brands of pasta sauce whose net carbs to fiber is also about the same as that of low starch vegetables....same goes for those Atkins Endulge snacks.....so can we eat like a billion of those each day?

I can barely manage 2 cups of veggies a day, let alone 10...how do you do it? Feels like most meals would be 80% veggies. (And i hate most veg)

Wow I am very surprised to see this.

Thank you so much ❤

Hold on now though. You're jumping from words "vegetables" to "salad" and "leafy greens" but there is a massive difference. Yes 8 cups of Kale is only 7.5 gr carbs. But 8 cups of even humble zucchini is 37 and Broccoli and Caulif are 48/40.

7 to 10 cups veg/fruits a day? Some new information. Thankyou Dr Berg.

Thx for great info. So it means Carnivore diet isn't healthy, correct?
Dr. Ken Berry needs to watch this.

Does this also include to not count... onion, cucumber, baby bell pepper, tomatoes?

So I avoid starchy veggies obviously, but what about things like tomatoes? Or broccoli? They tend to have a bit higher carbs. Should I Not count those net carbs as well? Just making sure. Also I really needed this video, my hair has thinned out a bit several months into keto and I believe this is why

Should we be concerned with carbs from onions? Does eating a lot of onions make us get kicked out of ketosis?

What about veggies like capsicum? When I count it on fitness pal it has lots of carbs

Dr. Berg is the man ❤

I don't have to count cauliflower or broccoli carbs?
