Managing food allergies on a keto diet requires careful planning and label reading to stay safe and on track.
Since keto emphasizes low-carb, high-fat foods, it’s possible to avoid many common allergens like gluten and grains naturally.
However, keto staples such as nuts, dairy, and eggs are also common allergens.
If you’re allergic to dairy, opt for alternatives like coconut milk or nut-based cheeses (if not allergic to nuts).
For nut allergies, seeds like chia, flax, or sunflower seeds can replace nuts in recipes.
Egg allergies can be trickier, but flax or chia eggs make good substitutes in baking.
Always check labels for hidden allergens in packaged keto foods, and when in doubt, stick to whole, unprocessed ingredients. Consulting a dietitian can help tailor a keto plan that avoids allergens while maintaining nutritional balance.
With some creativity and awareness, it’s entirely possible to stay keto-friendly and allergy-safe.
