Well, if you're comparing today's pre-processed loaves, neither offers significantly different nutritional value. In older days, the fiber content of wheat bread was considerably higher, added to the fact white bread was not enriched, so this statement was true many years ago, but in general, not today (in the US). Interestingly enough, if you examine the nutritional content of most pre-sliced brand loaves of bread, the white bread actually has a greater fiber content!

Regarding 2brich's suggestion... I wouldn't recommend a keto diet (cyclical nor conventional) to a person that didn't have a very strong will when it came to eating- you will get strong carb cravings and become sick of fat/protein foods quickly.
