For many years, butter and cream were believed to cause heart disease due to their high saturated fat content. However, several large studies have shown that saturated fat isn’t linked to heart disease for most people.

In fact, some studies suggest that moderate intake of high fat dairy may reduce your risk of heart attack and stroke.

Like other fatty dairy products, butter and cream are rich in CLA, which may promote fat loss.

In fact, they’re popular choices for adding to coffee or using as keto alternatives to small amounts of milk in cooking.

7. Unsweetened plantbased milks

Several varieties of plant-based milk are ketofriendly, including soy, almond, and coconut milks.

should avoid oat milk, because even unsweetened oat milk is too high in carbs to be keto-friendly.

Summary

Several types of dairy and dairy alternatives are suitable for keto, including cheese, plain yogurt, cottage cheese, cream, half-and-half, and certain unsweetened plant milks.
