  • a Question about chedder cheese...

    Hi, I am new to this site, and very thankfull to be here, I have been on induction for three weeks and I found a chedder cheese that has zero carbs is it still ok to have it through out the day and if so does it matter how much? I would love any feed back.

    Cheese will always have carbs because milks have carbs in it. Sometimes the serving size that they use on the label is so small that the makers are allowed to claim that there is 0 carb in the product but in reality that is not true. So the answer to your question is that as the book says you are limited to 3-4oz of cheese (and that will include the cheddar cheese).

          Again, because it's made from milk it does not have a zero carb count. To be safe, anything listed as <1 gram of carb should be counted as 1 gram of carb per ounce.

          And fresh mozz does have fat. Mine has about 5 grams per ounce

              Parmesan is allowed. However, make sure it does not have starch among the ingredients. They often add starch to prevent it from sticking together.

                  Hmm, I'm not 100% sure about this, but as far as I know cellulose powder is pure fiber... so it has no contribution to the net carbs.

                  The best thing to do is grate your own cheese.

                    So true, Georgiana
                    I buy the block of parmesan and either grate it very finely for sprinkling over dishes or into recipes or use a vegetable peeler to make 'shavings' for caesar salad.

                    It tastes so much better than the dry stuff they sell pregrated.
                    Wondering how to get 'most' of your net carbs from your induction veggies?
