Meats It is preferable to eat unprocessed meats that come from grass-fed animals and organic farms. If you do eat processed meats, make sure they contain under 5% carbs. As far as the quantity, you must stick to a normal intake. Meats are high-protein foods and, if you eat too much meat, you will get excess protein, which is not compatible with a keto diet. The body will convert the additional protein and not the fat, into glucose and fuel the body. This can cancel completely or at least reduce ketosis, the very essence of a ketogenic diet.
