If you are on a low-carb diet and are in need of a nice source of energy, this cheesecake fat bomb is perfect for you! If it high in fat and low in carbs.
Sometimes you may feel like you are not really able to east a delicious snack when you are on a low-carb diet, but this fat bomb will prove you wrong for sure!
What Is A Fat Bomb
If you read the title and it left you thinking, "What the heck is a fat bomb?", allow me to clear it up a little for you. For starters, it is mainly for those who are on a low-carb diet.
This cheesecake fat bomb is equivalent to an energy ball or energy bar for someone who is not on a low-carb diet. Because you are not burning crabs, you will need to burn fat instead.
The fat bomb is full of fats that will give you energy in the same way an energy bar would. It is also low on carbs which makes it perfect for your keto diet.
This cheesecake fat bomb is so very delicious and is guaranteed to give you the energy boost you are wanting. Your taste buds will be happy and your body will be too!
It is important yo have fats when you are on a low-carb diet because your body needs to burn something for fuel instead of the carbs. You have to take care of yourself.
Some people may think that you are very limited when you are on a diet, but there are so many substitutes and other options for those that are on a diet.
How Many Can You Have On Keto
Fat bombs such as this cheesecake fat bomb should not be over consumed. They are typically eaten around the time you are going to work out or if you need something on-the-go.
You should only have 1-3 fat bombs per day. You will get plenty of the energy you need and they make for a great midday snack when you are low on energy but not ready for a meal.
Fat bombs are delicious but it is still important that you limit how many you have. You want to maintain a balanced diet, no matter what limitations you have.
With this cheesecake fat bomb, a few typical ingredients in an energy ball are replaced if they are high in crabs. An example would be the use of coconut flour and low-carb confectioners sugar.
Most low-carb recipes do the same thing as this one. Substituting the high-carb ingredients gets you the same treat that also follows your dietary restrictions.
I believe that some recipes taste even better when they have been modified for a low-carb diet. Don't miss out because you are scared of the word "diet".
