/If you've just learned about author Dr. Jason Fung, and you're trying to figure out which of his books to read first, I'm gonna give you my suggestion.

Read MoreFruit + LCHF = ?!?!?!
/Fruit is nature’s dessert and is naturally sweet due to the sugar. According to the Diet Doctors:
On a keto diet (<20 carb grams per day) you can have a few berries every so often and it won't likely take you out of ketosis. You might even be able to eat a few cherries or a small plum. Be careful, however, and when in doubt measure your ketones to assess how fruit impacts you.
