Can I eat meat at every meal while on keto?

It is possible to eat meat at every meal while following a ketogenic diet, but it is not recommended. Eating a variety of foods from all the major food groups - including proteins, healthy fats, vegetables and fruits - can help you achieve your weight-loss goals. Eating too much animal protein has been linked to an increased risk of cancer, heart disease and other health issues.

Additionally, eating a variety of plant-based proteins - including lentils, beans and nuts - can add much needed fiber to your diet, help you feel fuller for longer, and give you the essential vitamins and minerals your body needs.

In sum, while meat may be allowed on a ketogenic diet, it should not be the main focus of meals in order to maintain a balanced and healthy diet.
