Is Garlic Keto Friendly?

What's not to love about garlic? It dispels vampires, it adds delicious flavor to your food, and it has antimicrobial effects that can improve your skin. Okay, garlic breath isn't the best, but garlic is otherwise great.

Each clove of garlic has 0.9 g of net carbs, though few recipes have you eat a whole clove of garlic in each serving. Typically recipes call for one clove of garlic for a 4-serving meal, so garlic generally adds negligible carbs to a recipe.

The low carb count and the effect on flavor make garlic one of the most popular ingredients in keto recipes. Over one-third of recipes on KetoHub contain garlic! So if you're considering tossing some garlic into your keto meal, worry not, as it's perfectly compatible.
