Demystifying the Paleo Diet

2 Comments
9 years ago

It’s hard to keep tabs on all of the diets out there, along with which ones work and which ones don’t. There’s South Beach, Atkins, detox and more … who wouldn’t be overwhelmed? We’re here to inform you of all the ins and outs of one diet: the Paleo Diet.

What is the Paleo Diet?
This diet revolves around the idea of eating foods that existed when the cavemen roamed the earth, prior to the agricultural revolution, like animal proteins and plants. This means steering clear of dairy, refined sugar, legumes and grains. Instead, you’ll be filling your plate primarily with poultry, fish, meat, veggies and fruits. Those following this eating pattern hope to live a healthier and more fit life. By eating animal protein, fruits and vegetables, you’ll be getting beneficial nutrients like antioxidants, vitamins, phytochemicals, omega-3s, soluble fiber, monounsaturated fats and low-glycemic carbohydrates.

What are the benefits of this diet?
Following a strict diet filled with unlimited amounts of  fruits and veggies could cause slow and limited rises in your blood sugar, and the omega-3s will help to reduce inflammation. While there is no significant evidence that the Paleo Diet causes weight loss, if you build a “calorie deficit” into your diet plan, where you’re eating fewer calories than your daily recommended max, you may slim your waist. And because fresh produce is essentially sodium-free, your salt intake will be significantly lower, warding off bloating and other poor health issues.

You’ll never get bored with the Paleo Diet, because there is such a wide variety of ways you can cook up different animal protein and fruits and veggies. Here’s a Paleo Diet recipe from Men’s Fitness to try out at home: Paleo Diet Asian Pepper Shrimp: Serves 4

    In recent years, the “paleo diet,” a diet based on the perceived eating habits of prehistoric people has become wildly popular. But, says paleontologist Christina Warinner, this diet is based on an incorrect view of how early humans lived. Using modern day research, Warinner traces the roots of the human diet to discover what we can really learn from the food of our ancestors. http://tedxtalks.ted.com/video/Debunking-the-Paleo-Diet-Christ

    If the Paleo Diet fad is so healthy and responsible for brain growth, then why didn’t the Neanderthals survive and thrive? They had 300,000 years in Europe following the diet to make themselves into “Einsteins!” Speaking of Albert Einstein, this is what he had to say on the subject of health and survival: “Nothing will benefit human health and increase the chances for survival of life on earth as much as the evolution to a vegetarian diet.” http://www.veganfitness.net/viewtopic.php?t=723 & http://nutritionfacts.org/.

    You get better results with a vegan lifestyle, without the risks of cancer and heart disease. It’s eliminating processed foods and eating veggies that make you healthy!
