Why Organic Ghee Is Ideal For Keto And Paleo Friendly Diets

Our ghee is produced from grass fed organic butter, and it is especially popular among health-conscious people who want a non-inflammatory alternative to traditional cooking fats and oils. Ghee, a type of clarified butter, contains no lactose or sugars, and it’s also dense in vitamins and healthy fats. 

These qualities make ghee a particularly suitable product for people who follow keto and paleo friendly diets. Here’s a look at the benefits of using good quality organic ghee instead of your regular oils and butters.

Lactose and casein-free

Ghee is clarified butter (meaning that it has been simmered to remove the water content and milk solids). This process removes most of the lactose and casein, which means that it is usually safe for people with dairy intolerance to consume. This is a common reason that people follow the paleo diet, so ghee makes an ideal replacement for regular butter and oils.

A source of healthy fats

Ghee, particularly that produced from grass-fed organic butter, contains high amounts of conjugated linoleic acids (CLAs), which are a type of polyunsaturated omega-6 fatty acid. The keto diet involves replacing a high proportion of carbs with healthy fats as an energy source.

Ghee can support people following the keto diet by delivering a quick source of energy without the risk of spiking glucose levels or consuming less helpful amounts of saturated fats. Furthermore, ghee is rich in minerals for all-round nutritional benefit.

Supporting delicate digestive systems

Many people who follow keto or paleo diets have sensitive digestive issues, which can mean that they experience discomfort from eating foods that have been prepared with regular dairy or cooking oil products. Ghee contains naturally occurring fatty acids that are gentle on the gut and can ease digestive problems.
