What is the Paleolithic diet and what does it consist of?
Answer:
The diet during that period consisted largely of lean red meats, game, birds, fish and seasonal vegetation.
There were no refined or processed carbohydrates of course.
The Paleolithic diet (also referred to as the Stone Age diet, caveman diet, hunter-gatherer diet, Paleo diet) is about eating the type of (100%) natural unprocessed foods that our ancestors ate before the advent of agriculture and technology. The Paleolithic diet is an excellent diet for health. This way of eating has been used successfully in the treatment of acne, food allergy/intolerance, diabetes type 2, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), epilepsy, systemic lupus erythematosus (SLE), arthritis, joint pains, insulin resistance, syndrome X, carbohydrate cravings, food addictions, binge eating, weight gain, obesity, mood swings and other health conditions. Our bodies are extremely similar to the bodies of our ancestors. In fact, less than 1/10th of 1% of our genes have changed in the last 10,000 years! Our bodies were designed for this way of eating. The best diet for health, or for weight loss, consists of eating the kinds of unprocessed low carbohydrate food our ancestors ate.
