Hey Bros, Im planning on doing a CKD diet. I havent done it before and I'm trying to plan what I can eat to get sufficiently high fats. The problem is, as far as I can see, the only things I can eat are peanuts and pure oil (e.g just drink olive oil etc).
For example, if I want to take in 2000 cals, and maintain 70/20/10 fat/protein/carb
One of the highest fat foods I can find is peanuts.
Lets say 2 of my meals are peanuts, 100gx2.
That gives me roughly 900 cals from fats, 240 from protein and 160 from carbs 70%/20%/10%. (approx)
I make up the 40 cals of carbs with some fibrous green vegetables to help bowel movement.
The rest of the protein, approximately 200 cals I can get from whey protein (this always contains a little carb too, but i dont want to make the calculation too complicated right now).
That leaves me with another 500 approx calories to come from another 55g of fat, how do I get that? I can only think of just mixing oil in with a couple of protein drinks.
Does that sound reasonable? I just cant think of another way of getting so much fat without also adding more carbs. Is this more or less what others are doing?
Any comments or advice welcome.
