A member asked:

What is the least amount of carbs i can consume daily?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. Stuart Hickerson answered

Specializes in Family Medicine

Carbs: Zero is possible, but difficult to acheive. Maybe if you only eat butter. Most ketogenic diets recommend 20 gtams as the lower threshold.
