Common Mistakes, Risks, and Smart Adjustments
Frequent Errors
- Using store-bought broth with added sugars
- Overcooking skins and discarding rendered fat
- Treating broth as a complete meal without fat
Nutritional Considerations
- Broth alone is not calorie-dense
- Sodium levels may be high
- Protein variety is still required
Smart Adjustments
- Always pair broth with fat or protein
- Save and reuse rendered chicken fat
- Rotate with other keto protein sources
When used strategically, skins and broth enhance keto sustainability rather than limiting it.
Apply these ideas using structured preparation and meal-planning protocols.
