Paleo vs. Keto
One of the most common questions we get is: what is the difference between Keto & Paleo?
Keto
- The main purpose of this diet is to focus on ketone levels.
- Low-carbs are monitored much more than in Paleo
- Keto emphasis a much higher fat diet
- Depending on the type of keto diet you do, you can eat dairy (high fat, non-processed) *
- Track your daily intake of carbs to make sure they stay low
Paleo
- Is based more on eating like our caveman ancestors
- Focused on eating lots of vegetables and high protein meats
- On Paleo, you can eat sweet potatoes, plantains, etc and high sugar fruits like bananas, peaches and grapes.
Both
- Avoid gluten, grains, legumes and corn.
- No refined sugars
- High-quality animal proteins
- Eat eggs
Keto is often a low-carb paleo (or high fat, low carb paleo).
