Why Keto Zone Autumn Recipes?

Autumn recipes can be comforting, nostalgic, and incredibly nutritious! Our Keto Zone Autumn recipes boast a variety of superfood ingredients to promote full body health and energy even as the days get darker.

For example, these superfoods include:

Nuts and Seeds

Across the board, nuts and seeds offer protein, plant based omega-3 fatty acids, fiber, vitamin E, and more .In fact, the omega-3s promote anti-inflammatory reactions in the body. The Vitamin E, magnesium, fiber, calcium and iron further encourage whole-body health. In addition, their antioxidants fight free radicals, reduce the risk of cellular overgrowth, promote heart health, reduce cholesterol plaque formations, and encourage eye health (1).

Pumpkin

Pumpkins are loaded with potent nutrients. First and foremost, it contains lutein, a carotenoid antioxidant that protects the body from oxidative stress (2). Next, it contains anti-inflammatory nutrients. These compounds steer the body toward less inflammation, thereby fighting against many chronic health issues. Lastly, pumpkin oil has been found to promote full-body health and reduce risk of cellular overgrowth in the organs (3, 4, 5).

Flavorful Spices 

One hallmark of Autumn foods are spices. Cinnamon, cloves, ginger, and more promote anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidative, digestion, brain, circulation, and heart health (6, 7). What’s more, some spices also provide antibacterial benefits (8).
