Firstly, the ketogenic diet is a diet that’s high in fat, moderate in protein and low in carbohydrates.

Carbohydrates are reduced to under 50 grams daily, to be able to reach ketosis and maintain it. Ketosis is the metabolic process in your body that burns your body’s fat for fuel instead of using glucose.

Eating on this diet consists mostly of fat, about 75% of the intake, and generally people that are on the keto diet consume animal products that are high in fat, like butter, meats and full-fat dairy.

Secondly, vegans eat diets that are plant-based, however they can still be on the ketogenic diet as well. Vegans reach ketosis by consuming high-fat like seeds, avocado, nuts and coconut oil.

Getting Sufficient Protein

You should try to consume about 0.7 grams of protein per pound of your goal body weight, if you do weight training, then consume about 1 gram per pound of your goal body weight. If you weigh 205 pounds and don’t do weight training, but your aim is to weigh 175 pounds, then you need to eat 0.7 grams of protein by 175, which is about 120 grams of protein daily.

Hemp seeds are excellent protein sources, which provided 30 grams of protein and 8 grams of fiber. Seitan is also another excellent protein source, as it provider 18 grams of protein and 2 grams of carbohydrates for every three ounces.

Tempeh and Tofu also have high protein content, Tempeh has a ratio of 1:6 and Tofu a ratio of 8:1. If you are considering a supplement, especially if you’re an athlete or workout, then hemp or other proteins with a vegan-source, like pea and rice powders with a 5:1 ratio of protein to carbohydrates are the best choices.
