so I’m gonna answer another question

it’s gonna be a quick video on quinoa

can I do quinoa on keto okay what is

quinoa it’s a seed but it’s a little

different than the other cereal grains

okay it’s a seed from the tall leafy

plant so it’s kind of called a pseudo

cereal grain grows three to nine feet

it’s pretty low on the glycemic index

it’s actually 53 however it can still

spike your blood sugars now it is

gluten-free but it’s usually processed

in manufacturing companies that also

process wheat so it could be exposed to

gluten but it does have a similar

compound to gluten which can create a

similar inflammatory reaction in your

gut and the feedback that I get from

people is that when they consume it not

only is it similar to grains and flour

products but it also bumps them out of

ketosis because it spikes the blood

sugar alright guys I wanted to keep this

short no you can’t do quinoa on keto
