â–ºChicory is a plant. Its roots and dried, above-ground parts are used to make medicine.In foods, chicory leaves are often eaten like celery, and the roots and leaf buds are boiled and eaten.

â–º Chicory is also used as a cooking spice and to flavor foods and beverages. Coffee mixes often include ground chicory to enhance the richness of the coffee.

â–ºTo reduce sugar in-take but get the benefits of the prebiotic from the chicory root (i.e., inulin), it may be best to add chicory root extract to your ketogenic diet rather than raw chicory root.

â–º Chicory root extract should not be included in your daily carbohydrate allotment and therefore, should be considered guilt-free on a ketogenic diet.

â–ºChicory root can not only increase daily fiber intake to boost regularity but because these foods may also have a lower calorie and fat content than comparable foods without inulin, they may also help decrease overall calorie intake.
