As a lifelong foodie, chef and self-made healing diet expert, I am going to break down the difference between paleo and keto. Explain the benefits to both and even explain the benefits of the autoimmune protocol, and why an elimination diet could be exactly what you need to really kick start your healing journey.


Paleo is not a low-calorie diet. It is organically lower in carbs than the Standard American Diet (SAD) and eliminates gluten and dairy. This shift from SAD, which includes a lot of processed foods and about 500 grams of carbs per day, to paleo which is based on whole foods, and is naturally around 150-200 grams of carbs per day, along with the elimination of gluten and dairy (the two most common inflammatory foods), is why folks feel AMAZING when they make the switch.


The way I see it, the paleo template is perfect when applied to ketogenic principles. Eat lots of plants and animals. Whole foods. Good fats. So it keto vs paleo is more like keto + paloe bff 4 life!


A great e-book for anyone who loves food and loves feeling great! This e-book bridges the gap between keto and paleo beautifully with simple, squeaky clean recipes packed with nutrients, color and flavor.


Great post! I also did a post about this subject, not nearly as in depth though. I found that assuming 5 meals a day for a weeks worth of food for 2 people, it comes to less than $2 a meal! Of course this is from one of hte big box grocery stores and is not organic or grass fed. But at the time of the shopping trip, we were newbies to the whole paleo thing. Here is the post: -for-challenge-shoppingparsing.html


My wife and I have been eating a very strict autoimmune paleo diet for 17 mos and have cut our food bill by > 50%. We just eat less food, less often, and we also eat out less often. We eat pastured animals, nose to tail with a lot of organ meat. We make bone broth by the gallon. We render our suet and make our own jerky & sauerkraut. My wife conjures up amazing desserts using coconut, roots & tubers, fruit, cocao, spices, etc. Our diet is now 60-70% fat, and fat is cheap. We also buy our meat in bulk from local farms, which we store in a 7cf deep freezer we picked up off craigslist for $80 [lightly used, 2yrs old].


This makes sense, but just eating meat + veg cooked in coconut oil for every meal will make anyone go insane. I think people also buy things like, tea, coffee, dark chocolate, some dairy products, various coconut products, random paleo friendly snacks, berries, fruit, nuts, olive oil, something paleo friendly and frozen because cooking every single mean is nearly impossible etc. And all these things run up the bill real high. I know that these things are non essential, but for a more realistic diet and food enjoyment these things are pretty essential.


I understand that the Paleo diet may not be absolutely perfect. The books written detailing the diet discuss all of the arguments in the article, and offer sample diet/meal plans for people with different needs or goals. You can follow the diet for the most part, still have your "cheat meals" (this was where I had maybe some oatmeal or a bit of dairy), and you will still find a lot of benefits from the change. Did my grocery bill go up? yes it did, but mostly because where I currently live doesn't really support more organic/ local food sources. Did I miss my grains and salt and dairy? At first i did, but after a couple of weeks I felt sick if I had a processed or high-sugar food. Is this diet for everyone, probably not. If you are a vegetarian or a vegan, I don't think you would be able to meet your nutritional needs on this diet. Is this diet perfect for me? YES. I am very sensitive to lactose and to gluten, so this diet would almost seem to be tailored-made for me. I eat lean meats (no bacon or fatty cuts of meat) of standard portion sizes and plenty of produce and nuts and find that I do not feel any lack of any nutrition. I had a full panel done about 30-45 days after starting the paleo diet and had no gaps in any of my nutrtional needs and my cholesterol levels had decreased along with my weight. When I started the diet, I was injured and unable to exercise at all for several months, this diet made the difference. My recomendation, do your research. Don't accept information from only one or two sources as absolute truth. Find a diet (as in normal, long-term daily eating habits) that fits your needs. Paleo was the best lifestyle option for me, and I am much happier and healthier for it.


I think the doctor is misunderstanding a few things about the paleo diet. First and foremost it questions the current paradigm regarding fat and cholesterol. There are lot of very smart people dissecting studies and questioning the current state of affairs regarding accepted recommendations for eating healthy food and avoidance of things like fat and animal products. I would suggest anyone interested Google around and read some information about paleo from both proponents and critics and make up your mind from there. If nothing else, the paleo lifestyle is about not just accepting the word of authorities, but thinking for oneself. The most frequent piece of advice from paleo folks to those interested is: try it, see how it works and go from there. That is definitely something you don't hear from mainstream nutrition authorities. 2ff7e9595c
