In this podcast, we’re going to compare potato chips and corn chips—which is worse? Let’s break down the nutrients of both types of chips.
Both chips contain a lot of carbs and GMOs. Potato chips contain fewer carbs and more fat. Potato chips also contain a lot of potassium.
Overall, potato chips are the winner. However, if you’re on keto, you want to avoid both of these altogether.

| 0:21.6 | Welcome to the Dr. Berg's Healthy Keto and Interminute Fasting Podcast, where Dr. Berg takes you on the journey for the truth about getting healthy and losing healthy weight. So today we're going to talk about a potato chip versus a corn chip. |
| 0:48.2 | And I want you to put down below in the comment section, which one do you like more? |
| 0:53.9 | Do you like potato chips more or corn chips? |
| 0:57.2 | Now in college, I'm going to admit I had my share of corn chips and potato chips. I wouldn't |
| 1:04.5 | just buy a little bag. I would buy the big jumbo bags and down the entire Doritos in one sitting. And I didn't just get the plane. I got the |
| 1:14.5 | one with all the different flavors and all the added extra benefit of the MSG. That's why I'm doing |
| 1:20.4 | these videos because it caught up with me. But let's do our comparison and everything's based on one |
| 1:25.4 | ounce. So potato versus corn corn is gmo most of the time potato usually is |
| 1:35.5 | not gmo okay the calories 160 versus 140 total fat 10 grams versus 7 grams so some people stop right there and say oh my gosh the potato chip has more |
| 1:52.1 | fat I'm going to avoid that I think I'll go with the corn chip based on the fat that's not what |
| 1:57.3 | you want to look at let's go to to sodium. 170 versus 115 milligrams. Right there, |
| 2:03.7 | people will tend to go with this because they think that, wow, this is so much healthier. |
| 2:09.9 | Let's keep going. Potassium. Look at this. In one ounce of potato chips, you have 350 milligrams |
| 2:16.7 | of potassium. That's a lot. Now, in one banana, |
| 2:21.0 | it's about 300 milligrams of potassium. But I wouldn't eat potato chips to get your potassium, okay? |
| 2:27.1 | Corn chips, zero potassium. Carbs. And this is probably the most important thing right here we got 15 grams of carbs per one ounce |
| 2:38.0 | versus 19 grams of carbs now if we take out our fiber one gram and one gram we get our net carbs |
| 2:45.4 | 14 versus 18 so corn has an extra 4 grams of carbohydrates despite having less calories and less |
| 2:55.5 | fat. So we have less fat, more carb. More fat, less carbs. So so far, potato chip is the winner. |
