It is important to note that the ketogenic diet is a high-fat, moderate protein and low-carb diet, so when preparing lunch or any meal, it's important to keep an eye on the macro nutrient content of your food and consult a dietitian if in doubt. Additionally, it's always important to stay hydrated, so make sure to drink plenty of water or other keto-friendly beverages throughout the day.
