I don’t know much about the keto diet except that it is a very low to a no-carb diet. The biggest difference between the Keto diet and the Paleo diet ( that I can tell) on the paleo diet you can eat fruit. The keto diet you can’t or a very limited portion. I was put on something like the keto diet when I was pregnant because I had gestational diabetes. It was very hard and I do not want to go back to eating like that on purpose. But, I did only gain 20 pounds so there must be something to the diet.
