65g of net carbs per 100g. Yellow onions have 5. 9g, white onions have 6. 48g, and red onions have 5. 96g of net carbs per 100g. On a ketogenic diet that limits carbohydrate consumption to 5% of total daily calories, the average person can only consume 20-25g of net carbs a day. Unfortunately, a 100g serving of onions (of any variety) is over a quarter of your total daily calories. That doesn’t mean that you have to completely cut onions out of your diet. Instead, practice consuming them in small quantities. A 100g serving is about ⅔ cup of chopped onion.

[15]Another recent study concludes that in addition to reduction in body weight and improving lipid profile, there was a significant
improvement in HbA1c and reduction in the intake of
insulin and oral antidiabetic drugs in patients with type 2 diabetes. [16] Not only does this research show how the keto diet can lead to weight loss and improved metabolic health, it’s also monetarily cost effective as it reduces the need for insulin and oral antidiabetic drugs. Lastly, our friends at Virta Health are doing incredible work reversing type 2 diabetes with their low carb protocols. One of their studies shows that this dietary monitoring protocol lowered glycemic control medication from 55. 7 to 26. 8% including insulin (-62%) and sulfonylureas (-100%). There was also resolution of diabetes (reversal, 53. 5%; remission, 17. 6%) in the intervention group but not in usual care group. [17]Overall Ranking: 2/5 StarsThe experts placed the keto diet in the bottom half in all but the short-term weight loss category primarily because of the diet’s emphasis on fat-rich foods.
