Are Navy beans Keto Friendly?
Answer: Navy beans are not keto, as they contain an enormous amount of carbs.
The navy bean is a dry white bean native to North America. It goes by many names: "haricot," "pearl haricot bean," "boston bean," "white pea bean," or "pea bean."
Each serving of navy beans (1 cup) contains 28.3 g of net carbs. Sadly, that's far too carb-heavy to fit the keto diet.
As a rule of thumb, beans do not fit the keto diet. They tend to be high in starches and low in fat, the opposite of what you want on keto.
Alternatives
If you need a bean to satisfy your bean craving, black soy beans are a popular keto-friendly bean. They're high in protein, rich in antioxidants, and only contain 2 g of net carbs per cup.
