Keto Egg Fast
Also known as a keto 3 day fast, this extreme diet is used by some to help kickstart ketosis. During this time, you’ll eat only eggs (at least 6 whole eggs a day), cheese (1 ounce of full-fat cheese per egg consumed), and butter (1 tablespoon / 15 grams), or another healthy fat per egg consumed.
Keto Juice Cleanse
As we know, fruits and fruit juices are not really allowed on the keto diet. However, you can craft delicious green smoothies out of herbs and vegetables. Choose a veggie that contains a lot of water like cucumbers, leafy greens, and celery. Add fresh herbs like basil and cilantro for flavor. Avocado or a scoop of Greek yogurt delivers much needed fat. You can also, of course, use keto friendly berries in your juice cleanse.
