The paleo keto diet is a modified version of the ketogenic diet. It is based on animal fat and protein consumption. It basically combines the aspects of the paleo diet and the ketogenic diet. Paleo diet emulates the foods of our ancestors, while the ketogenic diet is a very low-carbohydrate diet.
The paleo keto diet provides more energy compared to other diets. It also enables a more balanced supply of energy. The diet plan is low in carbohydrate, moderate in protein, and high in fat.
On a paleo keto diet, it has been instructed to consume fat and protein in a ratio of around 2:1. The diet mainly includes animal meat, fat, offal, and eggs. Vegetables and fruit are also included but to a lesser extent. A small amount of honey might be allowed for sweetening.
The paleo keto diet has remarkable benefits for people with type-1 and type-2 diabetes, as well as other long-term health diseases. Other benefits include reduced hypoglycemia, reduced risk of complications, and improved energy levels.
Food items like artificial sweeteners, legumes, potatoes, tomatoes, eggplants, vegetable/plant oil, and starchy root vegetables such as parsnips, beetroot among others are avoided in the paleo keto diet.
