peanuts

Are peanuts like dry roasted ok to eat on lchf? I'm fairly new to this

Ordinary roasted salted peanuts are ok for me, but ones with coatings raise my bs.

Actually very good for increasing your fat. Be careful though if you are trying to lose weight. I began lchf with cheese and nuts, however my calorie intake increased to over 2000 - not great. Small portions are the order of the day for me!

Thanks for the reply guys, I am trying to lose weight but training hard at the moment so I figure a small portion won't do me any wrong!

A lot of people feel that peanuts can stall weight loss, and not as healthy as tree nuts. Peanuts are legumes, not nuts, so they have slightly weird effects on metabolism. I do have some dry roasted peanuts at times, and no huge effect on my blood sugars.
