we’re going to talk about the common hidden carbohydrates now i can’t do

enough videos on this topic because inevitably someone is going to be

stalled on keto and wonder why it’s not working and then

come to find out they’re consuming something that they

had no idea had some hidden sugars in it so

let’s go to the list now when you consume

beef animal products is virtually less than one gram of carbohydrate

usually per serving size but when you consume liver

you have to realize that there’s glycogen in there which is store glucose

our bodies tend to hold stored glucose in the liver and the muscles but

apparently when you consume animal muscle meat it’s actually pretty

low but it seems to be retained in the liver

so i mean it’s not much but it’s something so if you’re doing a strict

keto diet and things are kind of stalled you know you might want to do an

evaluation and really add everything up so

in three ounces of beef liver 85 grams you have 3.2

carbs okay number two sausage deli meats bacon and i’m talking about the sausage

deli meats and bacon from a regular grocery store

not a health food store they do have hidden dextrose

cane sugar three ounces on average has about eight carbohydrates

so it’s actually a bit too high so you wanna start reading labels really

pay attention to the sugar and then the ingredients to see if it has any

sugars in the ingredients now this is interesting

oysters six medium oysters have about 10 carbs you would think they

would have zero carbs but they don’t there’s some carbs and mussels scallops

and clams now it’s nothing to really add up to anything but

if you’re trying to really count your carbs and keep it under a certain level

you really need to realize that there are some carbs in some of the seafood

imitation crab meat seven grams of carbs it has the type of carbs that you don’t

want to consume like potato starch tapioca starch so when you look at the

quantity of sugar you really want to make sure

what is the source of that sugar because potato starch and tapioca really

will spike the blood sugars a lot higher than other

sugars number five stevia and monk fruit

sometimes you buy in a powder and then even you have truvia which is

in a powder and splenda isn’t a powder if you read the label they have dextrose

or maltodextrin you want to avoid that so just because

it’s stevia or monk fruit or truvia or even splenda does not mean

it’s keto friendly number six teriyaki sauce

it has up to nine grams of carbs per serving so it’s pretty high

number seven low-carb sugar-free keto-friendly desserts and products

read the label a lot of times you’ll find that they use maltitol

or sorbitol they’re very high on the glycemic index it’s

almost like you’re consuming sugar number eight certain medications like

cough syrups throat lozenges have a good amount of

either high fructose corn syrup or dextrose a lot of sugar there’s other

medications that are loaded with sugar as well and

then something called imo’s iso malto illegal

saccharides now this is a type of so-called keto friendly fiber that they

put in various things like syrups and other

sweeteners i used to recommend it until i noticed

when i consumed products with this i could really feel a

blood sugar reaction so i did some more research and found that

it’s going to increase your blood sugar so you want to stay away from it so i

just wanted to increase your awareness about carbs and foods that you may not

suspect thanks for watching before you go if you

have a question about a product or you’re new to keto and you want to

know how to begin keto or you’re on keto and you need a

debug because it’s not going as smooth i have a keto consultant standing by to
