WHY TO LIMIT IT ON KETO
- Lower-carb than fruit juice: ~3–4g net per 100 mL is comparatively modest
- Vegetable-based: Emphasizes lower-sugar veg versus fruit
- Works in small portions: 2–4 oz can fit most keto carb budgets
- Slight protein content versus fruit-only juices
- Some fiber retained, though far less than whole veg
- Delivers micronutrients from mixed vegetables
HEALTH BENEFITS
- Provides vitamins and minerals from a variety of vegetables
- Can supply potassium—an important keto electrolyte
- Contains antioxidant compounds from tomatoes/greens/peppers
- Potentially anti-inflammatory vegetable polyphenols
- Easily digested micronutrient source alongside meals
- Contributes sodium and potassium—useful if training or sweating
PREPARATION SUGGESTIONS
SMALL GLASS
Enjoy 2–4 oz with a meal, counting ~2–4g net carbs. Pair with protein and fat for better satiety.
VEGETABLE JUICE COCKTAIL
Mix 3–4 oz vegetable juice with 1 oz vodka, hot sauce, lemon, and spices for a savory, keto-conscious cocktail.
SOUP BASE
Use as a base for keto soups; enrich with beef or bone broth, cream, cheese, and low-carb vegetables.
WELLNESS SHOT
Take 2–3 oz as a quick shot with celery, cucumber, and ginger—keep portions small to manage carbs.
