Episode 62: What sweeteners are okay on Keto & What are the good and bad fats on Keto?

In today's episode Jessica addresses two listener questions regarding eating sugar free and/or low carb treats and what sweeteners are okay to eat and the other regarding what oils/fats to use and how to cook with them. 

Here is a quick list of what she discusses: 

Good sweeteners: 

• Erythritol (she likes "Swerve" and a "Steviva Brands" which is a stevia/erythritol blend)
• Stevia (Steviva Brands and Sweet Leaf are trusted brands)
• Monk Fruit and Monk Fruit blends

Stay away from Sucralose (Splenda), Aspartame, Sacchrin (and others talked about in the podcast) as these are all chemically produced and raise blood glucose and/or wreck our gut microbiome when consumed regulary.  

Good Oils/Fats:

• Ghee
• Coconut Oil 
• Grass Fed Butter
• Grass Fed Beef Tallow
• Pastured Pork Lard (Bacon Reserves)
• Avocado Oil
• Olive Oil 
• Duck Fat
• Others mentioned in podcast 

Bad Oils/Fats:

• Any "vegetable" oils (which are actually all seed or legume oils): 
• canola oil 
• corn oil
• sunflower oil 
• peanut oil 
• safflower oil 
• And many more mentioned in the podcast
