Can I have a sip of soda on keto?

Drinks You Should Try to Avoid on the Keto Diet Avoid sugar-sweetened drinks (like soda) and fruit juice (even 100 percent juice) because they're packed with sugar, and thus carbs. Dairy milk is also high in carbs, so it's not keto-friendly.

If you’re on a ketogenic diet, you’re super focused on what you’re eating (and especially what you’re not eating). But don’t forget that what you sip can also help set you up for success.

Why Staying Hydrated Is Crucial on a Keto Diet

In the beginning stages of a keto diet, when your body is adapting to a severely restricted intake of carbohydrates, your body’s hydration status will shift. After all, your body stores carbohydrates as glycogen, which holds on to water, research shows. Exhaust those glycogen stores, and you’re going to dump water weight with it, notes Rush University Medical Center. What’s more, removing processed foods from your diet — which are traditionally higher in sodium — can also affect your body’s electrolyte and fluid balance, since excess sodium intake can lead to water retention. “Hydration is difficult for many on the keto diet, especially in the beginning. You need to make sure you’re drinking a lot of water and replenishing electrolytes,” says Kendra Whitmire, a nutritionist and dietitian in Laguna Beach, California, who practices functional and therapeutic nutrition.

Drinks You Should Try to Avoid on the Keto Diet

Avoid sweetened drinks like regular soda and fruit juice (even 100 percent juice), which are packed with sugar and carbs. Dairy milk is also high in carbs, so it’s not keto-friendly. Skip (or at the very least, limit) diet drinks, too, says Jill Gulotta, a registered dietitian nutritionist in private practice in White Plains, New York.

Is Diet Coke Allowed on Keto?

While beverages such as Diet Coke (or diet soda in general) are technically keto-compliant, they may lead you to crave more carbs. A mini review suggested that these artificially sweetened sips may trick the body into craving the calories and carbs it believes it’s getting from the diet soda. When your body realizes it isn’t getting them, you may make up for it by overeating. Regardless of whether that effect would hold true on a keto diet, there are a lot of better drink options. Here are nine great drinks to try if you’re on this plan:
