But avoiding high-carb foods that youre used to can be tricky, which is why weve listed some that you need to steer clear of:

Fruits and Vegetables

While both of these are always a healthy addition to a diet, some of them are high in carbohydrates, such as corn, peas, squash, potatoes, bananas, oranges, blueberries and apples. Always make sure to do some research before eating a fruit or veggie.

Grains

Although generally healthy, grains should be avoided while on the keto diet since theyre rich in carbs. Foods like pasta and bread that are made from grains should be avoided as well.

Dairy

Despite being a rich source of protein, some dairy products such as yogurt, milk and cottage cheese are also rich in carbs and therefore should be off the table while on the diet.

Sugary Sodas and Beverages
