Net Carbs in Vegetables

Net Carbs in Vegetables – A List for Keto Dieters

This is a list of vegetables showing their carb content.

The carb content is figured as per 100 grams, or about 3 ½” ounces.  Net carbs are total carbs minus fiber. Fiber is counted as carbs, but doesn’t really absorb in the body.

Note: If you are ever stuck at a certain weight and you can’t lose anymore, try counting your carbs as total carbs and not net carbs. This will lower your carb count even more and can often break a weight loss stall.

There may be items on here that are not great for keto, like fruits.  You might think  you could still eat just one or two bites, as long as your total carbs stay in the lane.

However, anything sugary, including sweet fruit, will tend to trigger your body’s insulin response. For that reason, it’s probably best to stay away from super sugary items, even if it’s within the total carb limit.

This is a generalized guide of net carbs in foods. It’s an approximation as each individual piece of produce will vary in carb content.
