Lime juice can have a lot of carbs, but unless you’re squeezing a bunch of limes in there, I don’t see how have a wedge or slice with a little squeezes into water could hurt.

My ketoaid used lots of fresh squeezed lemon juice, so I say have at it.

Since giving up milk I can’t live without lemon chunks in my green tea and it really dose kill my appetite

Yep, really depends on how much juice you’re talking about. It can add up. Calculate the first batch or two - then you should be able to guesstimate after that to make sure it doesn’t add up to significant carbs.

(I always do a tsp of each along with my ACV before each meal, then my treat drink is a tsp of each in club soda - all of which are in a 500ml pint glass).

I was thinking of adding slices of lemon/lime to a jug of water though not tsp

Likely won’t add up to much - but “jug” isn’t exactly a precise measure either. :slight_smile: If you were adding a slice of each to a mug of water and consuming 12 of them in a day, then it could add up. :slight_smile:

the tiny amount of carbs in your water is worth the benefits

I mix up my keto-aide by the half gallon, and in each half gallon I use four sachets of True Lemon/Lime. Works for me. YMMV.
