1/2/2024 0 Comments Keto maple syrup![]() ![]() A single tablespoon of maple syrup contains up to 52 calories, meaning that it exceeds the daily sugar intake recommendations for someone on a Keto diet in just a spoonful! Nonetheless, it is still not a keto-sweetener.Įven though traditional maple syrup holds some nutritional value over refined sugar because of its mineral and antioxidant qualities, its elevated levels of carbs and calories make it unsuitable as a ketogenic-diet sweetener alternative. It can also offer one a hefty dose of magnesium and potassium. Maple syrup has been a staple part of American delicacies since indigenous populations first obtained sap from maple trees in the 1600s.Ĭonsumer reports show that the natural sweetener contains several nutrients, meaning that one-quarter cup of maple syrup can deliver six percent of your recommended daily dosage of calcium and eleven percent of the recommended amount of zinc. So what are some alternatives if you follow a low-carb, high-fat diet? In this article, we will take a look at the health facts about maple syrup, and provide you with some keto-friendly options, such as our Skinny Syrups ! What Is Maple Syrup? Nonetheless, some people still prefer it as their primary sweetener of choice. (In fact, all the photos on this page are this product!) You can substitute it 1-to-1 with conventional honey in baking, sauces, and drinks, and each serving has just 15 calories and 0g net carbs.The short answer to this question is no, maple syrup is incompatible with a keto diet because it contains a high amount of sugar. ![]() Plus, it’s difficult to find a sweetener with the same thick, sticky texture as honey.Īfter months of testing, I developed the absolute best low carb substitute for honey: Wholesome Yum Keto Honey Substitute! It has the same flavor, thickness, stickiness, sweetness, and flavor of honey because it uses real honey flavor (from actual honey!), natural fiber for texture, and natural monk fruit sweetener with allulose. ![]() What is a honey substitute for keto? For a long time, there wasn’t one! Stevia or sugar alcohols such as erythritol and xylitol don’t have the same flavor, artificial sweeteners such as sucralose are highly processed, and natural sweeteners like pure maple syrup will still spike blood sugar levels. Besides, typically people consume more than one tablespoon, so it adds up fast. A single tablespoon contains 3.8 grams total carbs and 3.65 grams net carbs, which are 100% from sugar. How Many Carbs In Honey Mustard?Ĭarbs in honey mustard are not great for keto. Carbs in a tablespoon of honey add up to 17 grams of carbs (total and net carbs). How Many Carbs In Honey?Īre there carbs in honey? Yes! Carbs in raw honey and regular honey are the same. Keto dieters would be better off finding a low carb honey substitute. While raw honey contains the most nutrients (it’s not processed like regular honey, so it has the most micronutrients and is the closest to what the bees produce), it still contains the same amount of sugar and spikes insulin levels. The Easy Keto Cookbook contains an easy recipe for it that tastes like the real thing! Is Raw Honey Keto? However, there are ways to make keto friendly honey mustard. These have too many carbs per serving to easily fit in a low carb diet. Track this food and thousands of others (plus recipes!) in the app.Ĭonventional honey mustard dips and dressings are not keto, as they contain added sugars or honey. Get Carb Counts & Track Macros With The Easy Keto App Honey may be considered conventionally healthy, because it’s natural and contains small amounts of enzymes, proteins, vitamins, and minerals, but it does not align with a low-carb lifestyle. How can honey be off limits if it’s naturally produced by bees? Well, it mainly contains the simple sugars glucose and fructose - both of which can send you straight out of ketosis. Unfortunately, honey is not keto friendly. New to counting carbs or keto? Learn the keto diet basics here and grab my printable keto cheat sheet system to make it easy. Get Carb Counts & Track Macros With The Easy Keto AppĪmong all the foods you can enjoy on a low carb lifestyle, one of the most confusing categories is keto sweeteners - especially honey! Like coconut sugar, it’s a minimally processed and natural sweetener… but is honey keto friendly? Let’s take a closer look at how honey fits into a ketogenic diet, the carbs in honey, and the best keto honey substitute to enjoy when you’re watching your carb intake. ![]()

After beating A&M on Sunday, Tennessee finished the season with 11 Quadrant 1 wins -second only to Kansas' 12 -and did not suffer a single loss outside of the top half of Quadrant 1. But Tennessee finished eighth or better in all six of those metrics while Duke finished in 10th or worse in all six metrics.ĭon't like computers telling you what to do? Alright, fine. What do they stand for and how are they calculated? Not important and who the heck knows. There are six metrics on the selection committee's team sheets: NET, KPI, SOR, BPI, KP and SAG. 3 seed wouldn't have made sense.īut Tennessee ahead of Duke should have happened. 12, and the Wildcats were very much in the mix for a No. Heading into the week, I had Kentucky at No. 2 seed even though the Volunteers went 2-1 against the Wildcats and bounced them in the SEC semifinals. Some will complain about Tennessee getting a No. So, not only did Texas A&M get screwed, but the team it lost to in the SEC championship got a raw deal, too. Tennessee's Zakai Zeigler Wade Payne/Associated Press Texas A&M had an incredible run, but it didn't matter because evidently going 17-1 against Quadrants 3 and 4 made Notre Dame the more deserving team. And they even lost the game at Boston College! ![]() And it's total nonsense, because they had the most favorable, unbalanced schedule of all-time, getting to play their double dips against Pittsburgh, Georgia Tech, Boston College, Louisville, NC State and Clemson. Kentucky), two Q1 wins and a miserable 4-9 record against the top two quadrants that I'm going to guess is the worst we've ever seen from an at-large team.īut do you want to know why the Fighting Irish got in? Because they finished second in the ACC with a 15-5 record. When all was said and done, Texas A&M had three wins against the top half of Quadrant 1, four total wins against Quadrant 1 and a 9-10 record against the top two quadrants. All you really need to know about those numbers is you're most likely getting in if you finish top-45 in all three.Īnd yet, Texas A&M got left out while Notre Dame -which finished at 53 in the NET, 51.0 in resume and 52.7 in quality -was inexplicably deemed either the third-to-last or fourth-to-last team in. 42 in the NET with average resume and quality rankings of 41.5 and 44.3, respectively. 7 seed, it was the most impressive Championship Week run by any team on the bubble, by far.Īs far as the metrics are concerned, that brought the Aggies to a final resting place at No. Save for Virginia Tech winning the entire ACC tournament as the No. The Aggies went through Florida (Q2 win), Auburn (Q1 win) and Arkansas (Q1 win) before losing to Tennessee (Q1 loss). With so much to consider and so little to separate the teams, you could swap out one committee member and just about come up with an entirely new Last Four In.īut what the heck was the point of the SEC tournament if Texas A&M didn't get into the dance for reaching the finals? It's hard to feel too badly for any team that gets left out, because it either had too many losses, too many bad losses, a pathetic nonconference schedule, not enough quality wins, or a combination of all those things. Texas A&M's Buzz Williams Chris O'Meara/Associated PressĪs always, it must be pointed out that every team on the bubble had some fatal flaws. It's almost like the selection committee wants me to keep writing this article. Has any single-digit seed ever been placed at as much of a geographical disadvantage as the draw that Michigan State was given?Īnd did any committee members watch the Mountain West this year to realize Boise State won two titles? Iowa State won nine Quadrant 1 games but didn't even get a No. 1 seed this year and winning it all last year, but here's the most brutal draw ever given to a team on the top line. With the way Texas A&M and Tennessee were treated by the selection committee, why even hold the SEC tournament at all?Ĭongratulations to Baylor on earning a No. And every single year, we get fired up over some of the most egregious screwjobs. The field for the 2022 men's NCAA tournament is set, and no amount of whining will change that.Įvery single year the tournament selection committee makes in/out or seeding decisions that make no sense, or it gives a handful of teams an absolutely brutal draw. Tennessee head coach Rick Barnes has a right to be hopping mad at the selection committee. ![]() ![]() I had thought about the Emeryville option, but although I'm no stranger to BART, I am a novice at public transportation in the City and so wasn't sure how a) to use BART from SFO to whatever stop it would be to get the Amtrak bus somewhere in downtown, b) don't know what that stop would/should be and how to get to it from the nearest BART station.

Among these is a dried head, the only soft tissue of the dodo that remains today. In the 19th century, research was conducted on a small quantity of remains of four specimens that had been brought to Europe in the early 17th century. Its extinction was not immediately noticed, and some considered it to be a myth. The last widely accepted sighting of a dodo was in 1662. In the following years, the bird was hunted by sailors and invasive species, while its habitat was being destroyed. The first recorded mention of the dodo was by Dutch sailors in 1598. Though the dodo has historically been portrayed as being fat and clumsy, it is now thought to have been well-adapted for its ecosystem. It is presumed that the dodo became flightless because of the ready availability of abundant food sources and a relative absence of predators on Mauritius. One account states its clutch consisted of a single egg. It used gizzard stones to help digest its food, which is thought to have included fruits, and its main habitat is believed to have been the woods in the drier coastal areas of Mauritius. It has been depicted with brownish-grey plumage, yellow feet, a tuft of tail feathers, a grey, naked head, and a black, yellow, and green beak. Since these portraits vary considerably, and since only some of the illustrations are known to have been drawn from live specimens, the dodos' exact appearance in life remains unresolved, and little is known about its behaviour. The dodo's appearance in life is evidenced only by drawings, paintings, and written accounts from the 17th century. Subfossil remains show the dodo was about 1 m tall and may have weighed 10.6 - in the wild. A white dodo was once thought to have existed on the nearby island of Réunion, but it is now believed that this assumption was merely confusion based on the also-extinct Réunion ibis and paintings of white dodos. The closest living relative of the dodo is the Nicobar pigeon. The two formed the subfamily Raphinae, a clade of extinct flightless birds that were a part of the family which includes pigeons and doves. The dodo's closest genetic relative was the also-extinct Rodrigues solitaire. The dodo (Raphus cucullatus) is an extinct flightless bird that was endemic to the island of Mauritius, which is east of Madagascar in the Indian Ocean. ![]() |
