Good to Know
A single tablespoon delivers 13.5 g of fat and 119 calories with zero carbs, which makes it an easy way to add energy to a meal. Real extra virgin should taste a little peppery or bitter, and a dark glass bottle with a recent harvest date is a good sign you are getting the genuine article rather than a blend cut with cheaper oils. Drizzle it over salads, roasted vegetables, or a finished steak, since the flavor and the polyphenols hold up best when it is not pushed to high heat.
Is Olive Oil (Extra Virgin) Keto? The Full Answer
Olive Oil contains 0.00g net carbs per 1 tablespoon (0.00g total carbs minus 0.00g fiber). High in heart-healthy monounsaturated fat. Use cold or low heat to preserve polyphenols.
On a standard ketogenic diet, most people target 20-25g net carbs per day. A single serving uses 0% of a 20g daily carb limit. That makes Olive Oil a reliable keto staple.
Measure Your Ketone Levels
A blood ketone meter reads beta-hydroxybutyrate from a finger prick, the marker that defines nutritional ketosis at 0.5 to 3.0 mmol/L. Urine strips measure acetoacetate instead, which drops off once you are fat-adapted. Keto-Mojo makes a blood meter.
