The Perfect Keto Date Night at Home
Since we are all still staying home a bit more than usual, we wanted to plan a perfect night at home featuring a few of our favorite keto recipes and products. The great thing about keto is that while you are limited to how many carbs you can have, the type of foods you get to enjoy are endless.

Alcohol and Keto - While it is fine to have a glass of wine here and there on keto, it shouldn’t be an everyday occurrence. When you drink alcohol, your body switches off your fat burning potential and prioritizes getting the alcohol out of your system over using your fat for energy. The effects of alcohol can also make it easier to overeat or overdrink.
If you are considering a keto lifestyle, please know that while it has many proven benefits, it may not be right for everyone. Before altering your diet, always discuss any lifestyle changes with your doctor.
Enjoy!
