Coconuts and unrefined coconut oil

Because they provide a natural source of medium-chain triglycerides (MCTs), a type of fat that your body can easily absorb and use, coconuts and coconut oil are popular keto fat sources.

According to research, MCTs may make this easier for you to enter the state of ketosis, in which your body uses fat as fuel instead of glucose. MCTs may also help with weight loss since they are more likely to be used as energy and less likely to be stored as fat. Put unsweetened coconut flakes in your own smoothies or trail mix. To make curried meats or roast veggies in coconut oil, use full-fat coconut milk. Try sautéing cauliflower rice in coconut oil and fresh lime juice for an island-style flavor.
