CHAPTER 1: ABOUT VEGETARIAN KETOGENIC DIET

It is important to remember that not all classical vegetarian foods with high content of proteins can be part of the ketogenic diet. To achieve the condition of ketosis at the initial stage, specialists recommend supporting the following ratio of nutrients: 40% of proteins and 60% of fats. A week later, the number of fats needs must be doubled. In this case, your body will not use muscle protein as fuel during the process of restructuring on a keto diet.
