At Diet Doctor, our goal is to make low carb simple for people everywhere, and include as many dietary preferences as possible.
While most of our recipes contain a combination of plant and animal foods, we understand there are all kinds of low-carb lovers, and some may choose to eat vegan for a variety of individual reasons.
That’s why we’re excited to announce our brand-new low-carb vegan guide. It explains, through evidence-based information, how to eat low-carb as a vegan, including:
The right amount of protein, carbs, and fat to eat
Meeting all your nutrient needs consistently
The best low-carb protein sources
Low-carb vegan alternatives, including recipe ingredients
How to dine out low-carb vegan style
We created this guide for vegans who might benefit from a low-carb approach. If you don’t want to eat vegan or choose to do so in a way other than what we present, we support your choice.
We also have several delicious new vegan recipes and a brand-new vegan meal plan for Diet Doctor Plus members interested in veganism: Low-carb vegan meal plan.
Do you want to eat a low-carb diet for health reasons, but avoid all animal food products, too? Never fear, our vegan meal plan is here. With tasty and nutritious dishes from all around the globe, our satisfying and filling recipes show you can be vegan AND meet your low-carb health and weight loss goals.
I'm interested in a fully vegan 30-day keto meal plan :)
At this time we don't have a full 4 meal plans. You can find our full vegan guide here with links to recipes and the meal plan we do have. It is more moderate low carb though. It is difficult to be keto as a vegan due to the carb count in the alternative protein sources. https://www.dietdoctor.com/low-carb/vegan
Hi! In a vegan low carb diet, what about the overconsumption of PUFA
compared to a classic low carb diet, due to soy, nuts and seeds for protein intake? Should we worry about it or just insure to reach the recommendations for ALA, EPA, DHA intakes?
I read and support your team From France, thanks for your blog! And sorry for my approximative English, I try to do the best:)
Hi Lucy, Thanks for your question. I wouldn't be concerned about higher omega-6 PUFA intake if you follow the advice to regularly eat chia, flax, and/or hemp seeds. It would also be great to consume kelp or other sea vegetables occasionally, if possible. Some meats like pork and chicken legs are also fairly high in omega-6 fats, so getting enough omega-3 fats for balance is important for vegans and meat eaters alike. I wish you the very best of luck, going forward. By the way, your English is perfect :)
Unfortunately it is very difficult to eat keto and vegan due to the carb count in the alternative protein sources.
