Fat and Protein Foods to Eat on Ketogenic Diet. To maintain ketosis -- which helps you burn body fat -- fat and protein should make up the bulk of your intake on the ketogenic diet. Healthy fat options include vegetable oils such as olive oil, safflower, sunflower, canola, peanut and sesame oil, along with mayonnaise.
Hence the name ketogenic diet. In order to get your body into ketosis, 70 to 80 percent of your calories should come from fat, 15 to 20 percent from protein, and 5 percent from carbs. That means you'll be eating approximately 25 to 35 grams of net carbs (about the equivalent of one apple, says Smith) per day.
