I don't use lunchmeat but I use braunschweiger. I only have one kidney and my renal doctor wasn't happy about me being on Keto until I told him I now had nails that did not peel, so he agreed I should stay on it, in spite of level of protein, but the heavy fat of braunschweiger has improved my iron levels, anemia is gone as well, no more B12 tablets. And men usually love this liver pate, as I choose to call it

    Nails that do not peel? That is a good reason to do keto :/

    I think nails that peel is a common "side effect" from having kidney issues. So if her nails aren't peeling that's a good thing, and maybe the Keto is helping that.

    And here I was lead to believe that avoiding lunchmeat is to limit sodium, that kidney issues requires one to limit sodium and protein, that keto was low carb, high fat and medium protein, that a higher iron intake improves iron levels in blood, that low iron levels is what's usually referred to as anemia, and that vegans have to take B12 because they don't eat meat or other animal products. :|
