What Is The Purpose Of Keto Fat Bombs?

Fat bombs are portable, small, snack-sized low carb miracle workers. To be clear, fat bombs are full of healthy, good-for-you fats like coconut oil, butter, nut butter, avocado oil, and cream – not trans-fats (which were officially banned by the FDA in 2018.)

Sweet and savory!

Fat Bomb 101

Fat bombs come in all flavors & textures. It’s all up to you. The most popular fat bomb recipes seem to be dessert which is fine by me since I consider it to be one the most important meals of the day!

The most popular bases for fat bombs are butter, cream cheese, and coconut oil. Other bases include ghee, coconut cream, cocoa butter, and cashew cheese. Some people prefer to use a silicone mold like this one, but you don’t have to go out and buy anything special.

Most of the time you can use an ice tray or nothing at all.

“With lazy keto, you limit carbohydrate intake to 10% or less,” Hezer said. “To put that into numbers, for 2,000 calories diet, 10% would equal 50 grams of total carbs, not net carbs.” The goal is to transition the body into a state called ketosis, where your body relies on fat for fuel instead of carbohydrates.

Do fat bombs break ketosis? ›

If you aren't familiar with fat bombs, they are low-carb, high-fat, low-sugar treats made with only keto-friendly ingredients, designed to replicate high-carb goodies by providing keto substitutes in place of normal dessert ingredients. The best part is, they won't take you out of ketosis.

What's the point of keto fat bombs? ›

Peanut butter can definitely be part of a keto diet, but it's best to stick to plain options that are free of extra flavors and sweeteners.

In essence, dirty keto is a variation of the keto diet (a high fat, moderate protein, low carb diet) that allows you to consume whatever you want as long as it meets your macro goals.

What happens if you eat keto but not in ketosis? ›

When should I take keto fat burners? ›

Ans: As a dietary supplement, take 2 capsules a day before a meal or as directed by a healthcare practitioner. Healthvit Keto Fat Burner has been formulated in the USA with Garcinia, Green tea, Green coffee, CLA 60 capsules.
