If you happen to know of another great vegan keto recipe blog – I’d LOVE to know about it! It’s such a nice community, and I’d love to get to know other plant-based keto bloggers. 🙂

My question is this.. i love this blog by the way!… but, I am looking to adopt a vegan flexible ketogenic diet for my son, for health issues. It is imperative that his ph stay alkaline, though. What is your knowledge surrounding this? With a plant based diet (he will drink bone broths, though), will/ do the plant foods/ veggies keep you alkaline enough as is, or should I be monitering ph?
Right now we are plantbased, but more carb heavy.
Hi, Brittany, thank you for all the kind words! Sorry for the delayed response – my “real job” is in the busiest week of the year right now!
Good news – a lot of vegan keto foods are alkaline! I honestly don’t know enough about body alkalinity to say whether you should monitor your son’s pH (your doctor would be a much better resource!), but I can tell you that there are plenty of alkaline nuts and veggies that are champions on a ketogenic diet. 😀
Avocado, almonds, coconut, broccoli, cauliflower, zucchini and greens (just to start) are all keto staples, and alkaline foods!
This is a great topic for a post, so I’ll definitely be going into more depth soon. Thanks for posting, and I’d love to know how you and your son are doing with this!
for those who can tolerate vital wheat gluten, is it allowed on a ketogenic diet? i am allergic to soy and don’t have access to a lot of the quorn or beyond meat brand products. i would have to make seitan from scratch. thanks.
Hi Greyce, this is a great question! Vital wheat gluten and seitan are absolutely allowed on a ketogenic diet! I have Celiac though, so I always forget to list it! I’ll change that though. 🙂
