Enlightened's Keto-Friendly Ice Cream Line Hits the Market ¶
On August 14, 2019, Enlightened, a well-known brand in the low-calorie ice cream market, announced the launch of its new keto diet-friendly ice cream line. This innovative product is designed to cater to individuals following a ketogenic diet, who require a low-carb and high-fat diet.
The new keto ice cream line from Enlightened features a range of flavors, including Butter Pecan, Chocolate Glazed Donut, Coffee & Cream, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Mint Chocolate Chunk, Peanut Butter Fudge, and Red Velvet. The bars come in flavors such as Dark Chocolate, Marshmallow Peanut Butter, Mint Chocolate Chip, and Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip.
What sets Enlightened's keto ice cream apart is its use of natural sweeteners like monk fruit and erythritol, which are zero-calorie and won't spike blood sugar levels. This makes it an ideal option for those on a keto diet who want to indulge in a sweet treat without compromising their nutritional goals.
According to Scott Keatley, RD, of Keatley Medical Nutrition Therapy, having a serving of Enlightened's keto ice cream will not knock you out of ketosis. He recommends enjoying it as a treat, maybe once or twice a week, and notes that it's among the best keto-friendly ice cream options available.
While Enlightened's keto ice cream is a healthier option compared to traditional ice cream, it's essential to remember that it's still a treat and should be consumed in moderation. For individuals on a strict keto diet, it's crucial to prioritize nutrient-dense foods over treats like ice cream.
