Perhaps you have buddies raving about them.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Anecdotal evidence suggests that both of these dietary plans can result in weight loss, but which one is better? In this post, we size up these two most popular diets:\u00a0 Keto vs. <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/1200-calorie-paleo-meal-plans\/\">Paleo<\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"What_Is_The_Keto_Diet\"><\/span><strong>What Is The Keto Diet?<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The keto diet (which is short for the \u2018ketogenic diet\u2019) is an eating plan that focuses on foods that offer moderate protein, higher fat, and low-carb. The goal is to reduce carb intake and then replace it with fat. And the reduction in carbs puts the body into a metabolic state known as ketosis(<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S0022347602402065\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">2<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">While in ketosis, the body becomes efficient at burning fat for energy. The body also turns fat into ketones\\ketone bodies \u2013 molecules produced in the liver when there isn\u2019t enough glucose for energy \u2013 as an alternative fuel source (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/abs\/pii\/S0022347602402065\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">1<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Because keto diets reduce appetite, increase fat burning, and decrease insulin levels, it is not surprising that they have been said to outperform several other diet plans intended for weight loss.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong>Read More:<\/strong> <a href=\"https:\/\/betterme.world\/articles\/keto-diet-yogurt\/\">Keto Diet Yogurt: Healthy Alternatives To Achieve Your Weight Loss Goals<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2171&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Keto_Vs_Paleo\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-32270 size-full\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Frame-4529.png\" alt=\"keto vs paleo\" width=\"960\" height=\"540\" srcset=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Frame-4529.png 960w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Frame-4529-300x169.png 300w, https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/03\/Frame-4529.png 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 960px) 100vw, 960px\" \/><\/a><\/span><\/i><\/p>\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\"><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Potential_Health_Benefits_Of_Ketosis\"><\/span><b>Potential Health Benefits Of Ketosis<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Other than weight loss, the keto diet has a number of scientifically proven benefits.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Lowering_Cholesterol\"><\/span><strong>Lowering Cholesterol<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Eating healthful fats (like avocados rather than unhealthy fats like pork rinds) can better your heart health by lowering cholesterol (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/pmc\/articles\/PMC5452247\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">High cholesterol levels can increase the risk of cardiovascular illness.

While these are not important for the diet plan to be successful, they are a primary aspect of the paleo\u2019s framework.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Paleo_Does_Not_Measure_Ketones\"><\/span><strong>Paleo Does Not Measure Ketones<\/strong><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The goal of the keto diet is to switch your body\u2019s fuel source from glucose to ketone bodies. So paying close attention to the levels is crucial for keto success.

The macro ratios required to attain ketosis are different for every individual based on weight, genetics, fitness, activity level, hormones, and other health conditions.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Paleo diet, on the other hand, does not set guidelines.

But since the keto diet promotes diuresis, some dropped pounds may be because of water elimination.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">On the other hand, the paleo helps with pound-shedding. But researchers concluded that it is mainly because of the program lowering overall calorie intake (<\/span><a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciencedirect.com\/science\/article\/pii\/S2352618117301361\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">4<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">).<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">So if combined with a very active lifestyle, both diet plans could prove effective.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The fact is, there is a lot to love about both plans: Keto vs. Paleo. Both prohibit added sugar, ultra-processed foods, and unhealthy fats while favoring whole, natural foods.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">And so, if you enjoy fruits and vegetables, like getting back to nature, and demand a range of food choices, paleo could be a sensible choice.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Conversely, if you enjoy calculating micro and macronutrients, are no stranger to meal planning, enjoy high-fat foods, and want to lose weight fast, the keto diet could be perfect for you.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/quiz.betterme.world\/en\/first-page-generated-gender?flow=2171&amp;utm_source=Blog&amp;utm_medium=Blog&amp;utm_campaign=Keto_Vs_Paleo\"><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter\" src=\"https:\/\/cdn.betterme.world\/articles\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/08\/Frame_207607.gif\" alt=\"keto diet\" width=\"1339\" height=\"753\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"DISCLAIMER\"><\/span><b>DISCLAIMER:<\/b><span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">This article is intended for general informational purposes only and does not address individual circumstances.
