Keto and Paleo Diets: Do They Really Help You Lose Weight?

The keto and paleo diets both emphasise whole, unprocessed foods but differ significantly. The keto diet is high-fat and low-carb, aiming to induce ketosis for fat-based energy, which aids in weight loss and blood sugar control. In contrast, the paleo diet focuses on ancestral eating, including lean meats, vegetables, fruits, nuts, and seeds, while avoiding grains, legumes, and dairy. Both diets limit processed foods and sugars but have different carb restrictions. Keto can lead to quick weight loss but may cause nutrient deficiencies, while paleo supports long-term health but can be harder to maintain. It’s advisable to consult a professional to choose the right diet for individual needs.
