If you're on the keto diet, then you know that it's all about high-fat and low-carb foods. Unfortunately, that limits your fruit consumption because fruits contain sugar and sugar contains carbohydrates. However, there's still a pretty wide range of fruits that are low enough in carbs for you to literally make a fruit salad – the only caveat is that you wouldn't be able to eat too much of it, but sharing is caring, right?

According to Dr. Jason Axe, the recommended daily intake of carbohydrates in order for your body to go and stay in ketosis is 30 to 50 grams. If you're a fruit lover, we've compiled a list of fruits that contain well under 30 grams of carbohydrates per serving. So go ahead and treat yourself to a slice of watermelon on a hot Summer day, or throw a handful of blueberries in your full-fat yoghurt. Click through to see what other fruits are low in carbs, along with some keto-friendly recipe ideas.
