The authentic Vietnamese dish is known for its fragrant broth, rice noodles, and a medley of herbs and spices.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">When you&#8217;re on a low-carb diet like Keto, it can be confusing to decipher if Pho fits into your dietary plan. But like most foods, it all comes down to the ingredients and their nutritional breakdown.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here&#8217;s what you need to know about enjoying Pho while staying true to your <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/the-keto-diet-basics-foods-tips-and-benefits\/\">Keto diet<\/a> goals.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Pho_High_In_Carbs\"><\/span><b>Is Pho High In Carbs?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional Vietnamese Pho is made with rice <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/keto-noodles\/\">noodles<\/a>, which are high in carbohydrates. One cup of cooked rice noodles contains about 42 grams of carbs (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/fdc.nal.usda.gov\/fdc-app.html#\/food-details\/168914\/nutrients\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">6<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Pho broth is also made by simmering bones and meat, which adds slightly to the overall carb count.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other less mainstream variations of Pho feature wheat noodles or banh pho, which are also high in carbs. Additionally, the broth can have added sugar and starch to enhance the taste.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So how can you make Pho work for your low-carb diet?<\/span><\/p>\n<p><strong>BetterMe is your fast-track ticket to a long-lasting weight loss! <a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2171&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=pho_keto\">Tailor your fitness journey and maximize your results <\/a> with just a couple of swipes!<\/strong><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Swap_Noodles_For_Vegetables\"><\/span><b>Swap Noodles For Vegetables<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One of the easiest ways to cut carbs from Pho is by replacing rice noodles with vegetables.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Zucchini noodles, also known as zoodles, are a popular low-carb substitute for pasta and can work well in Pho too. Simply spiralize the zucchini and add it to your broth towards the end of cooking.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other vegetables that you can use are shirataki or konjac noodles, which have almost no carbs. These transparent and gelatinous noodles are made from konjac yam and can be found in Asian grocery stores. They add a nice bite to the broth without altering the taste.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Choose_A_Broth_Wisely\"><\/span><b>Choose A Broth Wisely<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The broth is an essential part of Pho, and it&#8217;s where some of the carbs can come from. Traditional Pho broth is made with beef bones and meat simmered for hours until all the flavors are extracted. However, some restaurants might add sugar or flour to their broth for a richer flavor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re making Pho at home, it&#8217;s best to stick with the traditional recipe and skip any added sugars or starches. If dining out, don&#8217;t hesitate to ask about the ingredients in the broth or opt for a clear broth instead of a cloudy one.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can also make your own broth by using chicken, pork, or seafood instead of beef.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Load_Up_On_Protein\"><\/span><b>Load Up On Protein<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Protein is essential for any low-carb diet, as it helps keep you full and satisfied (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S0002916523236643?via%3Dihub\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). Pho typically contains a variety of meats such as beef, chicken, or shrimp. Take advantage of this and add extra protein to your bowl to balance out the noodles.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you&#8217;re vegetarian or vegan, tofu is a great source of plant-based protein that can be added to your Pho. Make sure to ask for extra tofu in place of meat if needed.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Be_Mindful_Of_Garnishes\"><\/span><b>Be Mindful Of Garnishes<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Garnishes like bean sprouts, lime, and fresh herbs are commonly served with Pho. While they add flavor and texture to the dish, they also add carbs. Keep an eye on how much you add to your bowl and opt for low-carb garnishes like cilantro, basil, and sliced avocado.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2171&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=pho_keto\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-30039 size-large\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/6-2.png\" alt=\"pho keto\" \/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2171&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=pho_keto\">\u00a0<\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Can_Be_Unhealthy_About_Pho\"><\/span><b>What Can Be Unhealthy About Pho?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pho can be unhealthy if it has high sodium content and is loaded with unhealthy fats. According to the American Heart Association, adults should limit their daily sodium intake to no more than 2,300 milligrams (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.heart.org\/en\/healthy-living\/healthy-eating\/eat-smart\/sodium\/how-much-sodium-should-i-eat-per-day\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">). If you&#8217;re concerned about your sodium intake, try making Pho at home so you can control the amount of salt used.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Another ingredient that can turn this delicious bowl of soup into a calorie bomb is your choice of toppings. Fried shallots, peanuts, fried dumplings, and fried noodles are common Pho toppings that can add unnecessary calories and carbs. Stick to fresh herbs, lime, and dried for a healthier option.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Watch out for sauces and condiments as well. Sriracha and hoisin sauce can contain sugar and carbs, so use them sparingly or skip them altogether.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><strong>Read more: <\/strong><\/i><a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/keto-sushi\/\"><i>6 Keto Sushi Recipes to Eat on a Low-Carb Diet<\/i><\/a><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Pho_Healthier_Than_Ramen\"><\/span><b>Is Pho Healthier Than Ramen?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Pho is known to have a lighter and more nutritious broth, as compared to ramen, which often contains high amounts of sodium and unhealthy fats.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, as mentioned earlier, some variations of Pho can also be high in carbs and sodium.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It all comes down to choosing the right ingredients and being mindful of portion sizes.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Our <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/ramen-nutrition-facts\/\">Ramen Nutrition Facts<\/a> article goes deeper into what makes or breaks the nutritional value of this popular soup.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Is_Vietnamese_Food_Keto-Friendly\"><\/span><b>Is Vietnamese Food Keto-Friendly?<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Vietnamese cuisine can be relatively low in carbs, and more likely to be keto-friendly when compared to other cuisines e.g. Italian or Chinese.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Traditional dishes like pho (with some modifications), stir-fried meat and vegetables, and grilled meats are all good options for those following a low-carb diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">However, there are still some dishes that may contain hidden sugars or starchy carbs, so it&#8217;s essential to do your research and ask about ingredients when dining out.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other dishes are outrightly high in carbs, such as banh mi sandwiches or sugary desserts like che.
