Is Raw milk keto?

Raw milk is keto only in small portions: it has ~12 g of net carbs per glass (240 ml), against the keto diet's 5 g-per-serving limit.

Net carbs = total − fiber

12 g

per glass (240 ml)

These are the carbs that count on keto: total carbs minus fiber.

Whole milk's lactose (~12 g per glass) adds up fast on keto — fine as a splash in coffee, a full glass is borderline. Raw vs pasteurised doesn't change the carbs.
