How to Use KetoLens

Five simple steps to navigate the database, interpret verdicts, and plan your next keto-friendly meal with confidence.

Get The Most From Every Visit

  1. Start With A Goal

    Many ketogenic plans use roughly 20–50g carbohydrate per day, but targets vary. Decide what your clinician or personal plan recommends before interpreting YES, MODERATE, LIMIT, and AVOID.

  2. Search or Browse

    Use the header search to find specific foods, or browse categories to explore curated lists. Filters inside each category let you dial into subgroups such as leafy greens or dairy alternatives.

  3. Read The Verdict

    Every food card shows its carbohydrate reference and keto badge. Open a detail page to see the actual 100g, 100ml, or serving basis, source fit, formula, and serving ideas.

  4. Plan Your Plate

    Combine YES items for the bulk of your meal, add MODERATE foods sparingly, and treat LIMIT/AVOID as occasional or non-keto choices based on your daily macro limit.

  5. Track Updates

    Nutrition data and product formulas change. Entries are periodically reviewed, but always check the current package label for branded foods.

Before Changing Your Diet

KetoLens provides general education, not individualized medical advice. Talk with a clinician or registered dietitian before starting keto or changing carbohydrate intake if you have diabetes; are pregnant or breastfeeding; have kidney, liver, or pancreatic disease; have an eating-disorder history or lipid disorder; or take medication that can affect glucose, blood pressure, or fluid balance.
