In this video, Dr. Berg talks about the reason why you do not include vegetables carbs on ketogenic diet. It is recommended to take 7 to 10 cups of salads a day and that is equivalent to 3.5 to 5 grams of carbs, the overall calories and grams of carbohydrate in the salad is only small amount. The glycemic index of the green salad is 15 and the glycemic load is 3, both are extremely low. He also talks about some of the key benefits of vegetables and leafy greens in a ketogenic plan.

Key Benefits of Vegetables and Leafy Greens:
• Nutrients – Vitamins, minerals and trace minerals.
• Phytonutrients – Carotenoids, beta-carotene and antioxidants that add additional help to the body.
• Fiber – Soluble fiber to feed the microbes which then allows it to exchange back the beneficial fatty acids like the butyric acid which then feed the colon cells and also helps improve insulin resistance.
• Buffers pH – The vegetables will also buffer the acidic pH from the consumed meat.
• Helps fat travel out – It helps with the elimination from the liver out to the gallbladder and through the colon.

Today we're gonna talk about why you do not include veggie carbs on keto (ketogenic diet). Now, there's a mixed viewpoints on this, some people do some people don't. I don't recommend including your vegetable carbohydrates in the formula from the carbs and I'm gonna tell you why. So let's take for example one cup of salad. Usually going to do leafy greens in a salad, on average one cup of leafy greens is 1.5 grams of carbohydrate. If we minus the fiber which is one gram, we get .5 grams of net carbs. So we're dealing with a half of a gram. Now, I do recommend 7 to 10 cups of salad or vegetables per day. That would equal to 3.5 to 5 grams of carbs. Extremely low. You're allowed 20 grams to 50 grams, and your huge salad that provides a lot of benefit is only gonna count for 3.5 to 5 grams just a very small amount. So the overall calories and grams of carbohydrates in the salad that you eat are just such a small amount. It's almost insignificant. The glycemic index for a green salad is very small. It's 15, the glycemic load which is basically the amount of carbohydrate minus the fiber is 3. That's extremely low too, because less than 10 is low, 10 to 20 is moderate and greater than 20 is high. So it's low in the glycemic index, it's low on the glycemic load. It has significant amount of fiver which actually causes the overall carbs to be less so we're dealing with 0.5 grams. Now, let's talk about some key benefits of vegetables leafy greens into this keto plan. Well, number one they provide the nutrients the main nutrients, vitamins, minerals and trace minerals. It's very difficult to get all of your nutrients just from meat, so we want to add the vegetable family. It provides the phytonutrients, that's all the additional nutrients like carotenoids, beta-carotene that add additional help to the body and antioxidants, very important.
