HOW TO ENJOY IT ON KETO

  • Moderate net carbs (8.9g/100g): can fit with careful portions
  • Very low fat: easy to add fats elsewhere (e.g., yogurt, nuts, cheese)
  • Low calorie density supports weight management when carbs allow
  • Provides vitamin C for antioxidant support
  • Carotenoids (e.g., beta-carotene, lutein) support eye and skin health
  • Naturally sweet: can curb dessert cravings without added sugar when measured
