For Ultra Low-Carb /Low-Carb eating fats play an important role. The list of benefits is significant and you can read about some of them here.

It depends, but in most cases, no. Focus more on your macronutrient needs and ratios of fat to protein. If you’d like to set up a consultation call to determine your macro needs for your goals, make an appointment here.

Unfortunately the ratios of coconut flour to almond flour are not equivalent. So it’s not as simple as replacing one for the other.

We created convenient pie charts for every recipe so you can see exactly how many grams of protein:fat:carbs they contain. For example: if your fat:protein ratios are equal and you want to use one of our recipes, simply note the food score. If the food score is an “F”, that means that recipe contains more fat than protein, so you should add a little more protein to that meal. For more info you can read this: Macronutrient Guide.
