Can I eat oats on a Ketogenic Diet?

Those who follow a ketogenic (keto) diet plan will be aware that to get your body working in ketosis, you have to minimise high carbohydrates (starch) and therefore oats, classed in the high starch category, tend not to be recommended.

However, high fibre grains such as oats will not hinder your keto diet if following the The Fast 800* where some calories are restricted.

To help weight loss and reduce sugar you can include more whole grain such as porridge oats and eating it with natural fats (yoghurt, peanut butter, chia seeds, nuts) which slows any sugar spike.

So yes you can enjoy our oats, especially as we use wholegrain and seeds! Simplyseedz range of porridge oats are all keto friendly. 

We recommend checking out The Fast 800 diet, not only great for weight loss tips, but excellent recipe ideas too, to keep you well nourished.

*The Fast 800 is written by Dr Michael Mosley and is highly recommended source for weight loss and nutritional advice.

June 24 - We're terribly saddened by the tragic loss of Dr Michael Mosley. Such an inspirational guy who made healthy eating simple. May his legacy live on. Our condolences to his wife Clare and family at this difficult time. Clare wrote a small article back in 2020 for the Daily Mail, approving our range for its unprocessed qualities. RIP Michael.
