PREGUNTAS TÉCNICAS
Low-carb typically means under 100g total carbs per day, while keto targets under 20-50g net carbs to achieve ketosis. Low-carb gives you more flexibility — you can include berries, sweet potatoes, and some grains in moderation. It's easier to sustain long-term for most people.
Cauliflower rice (5g carbs vs 45g for regular rice), zucchini noodles (3g carbs vs 43g for pasta), spaghetti squash, and shirataki noodles are all excellent swaps that hold up well in meal prep. Cook cauliflower rice until dry to prevent sogginess.
Not if you season properly. Low-carb cooking actually lets you use more fats (butter, olive oil, cheese), which carry flavor beautifully. Season generously with herbs, spices, garlic, and acid (lemon, vinegar). Bland meal prep is a seasoning problem, not a carb problem.
